Notices of Communications to the Society, #c. 121 



John Rigden Neame, Esq. communicated to the Meeting, 

 on the 17th of December, a plan for preventing the drip in 

 glass houses, which falls from the sash bars on the plants 

 below them, and consequently injures them. Mr. Neame 

 attaches small thin copper gutters to the bars of his lights in 

 the manner represented in the annexed sketch. 



They are fastened on with pins the whole length of the bar, 

 and conduct the water which they receive to the top of the 

 plate which supports the bottom of the rafters, from which it 

 falls into a gutter which runs along the front of the house on 

 the outside.
