A thought struck her, — she would apply to her old schoolmistress at Paris, whose connection was very large and varied; she would doubtless know of something likely to suit.

The removal of the ore appears to have been performed partly by machines and partly by men, as was the case in Egypt and Spain, in which latter country, the younger slaves brought the ore through the adits to the surface of the soil : whether however the miners in Attica used leather bags for this purpose, and were on that account called bag-carriers (%vXaxo<pogoi), is, to say the least, uncertain ; for according to the grammarians these bags contained their food73.

In what manner the water was withdrawn from the mines, we are not informed ; it is however probable that the Greeks made use of the same artificial means as the Romans72.
