"The above engraving represents accurately a section of a leaden pipe, which was employed fora short 
time in conveying water from a well on the grounds of Mr Dick, of Bonchurch, Isle of Wight. The original 
section of pipe Is 6) in. long, 2J in. diameter, and 6-10 In. thick. A great part of the Internal, surface Is 
corroded by the union of the water; but, ns sliown Ir. the drawing, four deep excavations hnvo been made, 
nnd (mother Is shaded out of view by the manner In which tho section of the pipe hus been cut. The water 
has ml these deep pits almost through tho pipe, and not only upon the portion which wo have Illustrated, but 
has formed similar chasms throughout the entire length." — Esjioslfor.
