His principal reasons for so doing
were his wish to prevent the mans

method of communication with the
stranger as rapidly as possible.
Already the wounded man had learn

Instead of round shot.
In order that the globules may have
plenty of time to form the lead must
fall long distance, and so towers are
built The towers used to be made az
high as 200 feet and even more, but
modern towers are rarely over 100 feet.
The perforated pan into which the
molten lead is poured is at the top of
the tower, and the globvles Of lead fall

water cools them and also prevents

From the water the shot go to steam

After separation the perfect shot are
polished by rolling in plumbago, and
