Of hard, opaque, inhammable coal,
which does not soil or dirty the fin

and can be cut Brown coal has been
found at Bovey, Devonshire and on the
continent. Coal.hod is an old.fash.
ioned name for scuttle. Gas light can
be traced back over 200 years. A Mr..
T. Shirley, In 1860, attributed a burn
ing well at Wigan to the presence Of
coal underneath It. Just about this
time q Mr.. Clayton procured gas by
dlstilllng coal. Practical lighting,
however, came very slowly. In ITO
Mr.. Murdoch Illuminated his house
with gasllght, and very poor show It
is said to have been. He lived at Re-
druth, Cornwall. In 1902, Birmingham,
in celebrating the peace Of Amiens,
frightened up a large factory with
gaslight Thousands journeyed to see
the wonderful sight-which led to
gas-works being established at that
place, and In Manchester and Halifax.
