 squeezed out in one place is forced
 into the bed at another, thickening the mass correspondingly. One
 lenticular mass of graphite, which has been worked out reached a

 a breadth of Seventy.6ve feet verti-

 points so fine grained that it is

 coarse. In places the wall rock 8
 a white granite from which dikes
 from one-eighth inch upward in
 thickness penetrate the graphite.
 At other places small lenticular
 masses of granite few inches in
 length and one or two inches in
 thickness, which have been parted
 from dykes in squeezing, occur in
 the graphite. The walls are ordin-
 arily smooth and polished, the
 graphite upon them looking like a
 fine lustrous, black enamel. Here and there horses of the country rock jut into the bed owing to the
 faulting on both sides and almost, or quite cut off the graphite. In places lenticular masses of sand stone which are very similar to the
 sandstone lenticles sometimes found in coal beds, are buried in the graphite. They do not however,
 so far as 1 saw, have any persistent : characteristic in their relative dis ! ! tance from the walls. This may ! be due to crushing having dis placed them and given them new
 positions as regards top or bottom of the bed. These masses reach four to eight feet in length by six ' to eight inches in thickness and are easily picked out from the
 mined material.

[ had been slandered. one statement
made was that he WAS not always

cr was that he was secretly married To
"a lady not Of Royal rank, and that his
marriage with Queen Mary was there
