III. Upon opening the Body of a young Country 
Girl, dead of a Confumption, I found her Lungs fu- 
purated in many Places, and a Stricture in the mid- 
dle of the Stomach, dividing this Vifcus into two 
Bags. This Stricture appeared to have been of fome 
Standing, and likely to have occafioned fome Difficulty 
in Digeftion j but upon Enquiry, her Miftrefs and 
Fellow Servants faid, that her Appetite andDigeftions 
were natural, and that fhe had continued in a good 
Plight, till upon coming to London ffie contracted a 
Cough, that had brought on the Confumption.

T H E laft Experiment was repeated with hot Water ; when the Wa- 
ter was attra&ed much ftronger, and at a much greater Diftance : 
The Steam arifing from the Vertex was in this Cafe vifible, and the 
Tube was fprinkled with large Drops of Water. I tried the Experiment 
in the fame Manner upon Quickfilver, which was likewife raifed up* 
but by reafon of its great Weight, not to fo great an Height as the Wa- 
ter: The flapping Noife was louder,, and lafted much longer than in 
the Water.
