' As I go on in making other Experiments, other 
§lueries may a rife, and I fhall communicate them. 
Here follow the Experiments I have already macfe, 
and am ready to repeat as the S o c i e x y may defire. 
Experiments relating to the Firjl Finery. 
I ftretch’d a Cat-gut about five Feet in Length, and 
fatten'd it to the Top of two Chairs in an horizontal 
Situation, and fuch another Cat-gut String to two 
other Chairs parallel to the firtt, and at the, Dittancc 
of 1 5 or 20 Feet from the former. Then I fufpended 
one End of a Packthread to the Middle of the firtt 
Cat-gut, and carried it on. fo as to lay it over the 
Middle of the other Cat-gut^ and leave the other End 
of the Packthread hanging down about a Foot below 
the Cat-gut, with a Loop to hang feveral Bodies tp 
it, fuccettively to receive the Eledricity excited by 
the Tube, and applied to the other End of the Packr 
thread. • 
Ail the Bodies I tried received the Electricity com- 
municated from the rubb’d Tube along the String, 
which Appear’d by holding a Thread fatten’d to a 
Stick, the Thread being attraded.cowardsthefufpend-
