uIated that 1t should maintain uniform rate OF going
under every variety OF motion and climate This 1t
has done in most remarkable mannor; its rate of
going for the first six months was five seconds per
nonth and in the next six months it changed its rate
little faster, viz eight seconds per month, and Mt
the end Of 365 days it found to be fast OF Green
wich mean time minute and fifteen seconds
Though was not led by any previous promise TO
poet such performance, yet believe it is only the
usual character Of your improved watches which you
term your new series.
