guarantees for his honesty and prevent
our suspecting him guilty of deception
yet, that there might not be the least

learn and see TO The depth Of this new
science, he was asked many questions con-
cerning the why and wherefore Of the

thirty five years ago he accdenty found
that fork or rod of the above descrip-

certain points on the surface OF the earth.

of the turning down Of the rod in his
