![JN0 18,469 A.D.1900 Date of Application, 16th Oct., 1900—Accepted, 24th Nov., 1900 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION. Improvements in Combined Undershirts and Suspensory Bandages. I, Frank William Wright, of 520, East Third Street, Wichita, in the County of Sedgwick and State of Kansas, United States of America, Railway Conductor, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained, in and by the 5 following statement: — My invention relates to new and useful improvements in a suspensory and undershirt combined, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings, and the figures of reference thereon, forming a part of this specification, in which— 10 Fig. 1 is a front view of my suspensory and undershirt combined. Fig. 2 is a detail view showing the pocket or sack from the inside. This invention consists of a pocket or sack made integral with or secured to the bottom of an undershirt; and the object of my invention is to make, in combination with an undershirt, a suspensory consisting of a pocket or sack 15 for carrying the scrotum. Referring to the drawings, 1 represents an undershirt. 2 represents a pocket or sack secured to or made integral with the bottom of the front of an under¬ shirt on the inside. 3 represents a draw-string passing through the top edge of said pocket with the ends on the outside of the shirt. 4 represents an open- 20 ing in the shirt immediately above the top of said pocket. After the scrotum is placed in said sack the draw-string is gathered up and tied, and the opening 4 above said sack is for the purpose of obviating the necessity of removing the scrotum from said sack except when said shirt is removed. Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said 25 invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what 1 claim is : — 1. As a new article of manufacture an undershirt having an opening in the front part thereof a short distance from the bottom, a sack permanently secured at the bottom and sides to the inside, in front and near the bottom of said shirt, 30 and under said opening. 2. A new article of manufacture consisting of an undershirt having an open¬ ing in the front thereof a short distance from the bottom, a sack permanently secured at the bottom and sides to the inside, in front and near the bottom of said shirt, a draw-string passing through the upper end of said sack and through 35 said shirt, substantially as shown and described.
