&longs;ing it, we cau&longs;'d the Pumper to ply <lb/>
his work, and ob&longs;erv'd that upon the ve<lb/>
ry fir&longs;t ex&longs;uction of the Air (though per<lb/>
haps not becau&longs;e of that onely) the Fire <lb/>
in the Coals began to grow very dim, and <lb/>
though the agitation of the Ve&longs;&longs;el did <lb/>
make them &longs;wing up and down (which in <lb/>
the free Air would have retarded the ex<lb/>
tinction of the Fire) yet when we could <lb/>
no longer di&longs;cern any redne&longs;s at all in any <lb/>
of them; ca&longs;ting our eyes upon a Minute<lb/>
Watch we kept by us on this occa&longs;ion, we <lb/>
found that from the beginning of the <lb/>
Pumping (which might be about two mi<lb/>
nutes after the Coals had been put in <lb/>
glowing) to the total di&longs;-appearing of <lb/>
the Fire, there had pa&longs;&longs;ed but three mi<lb/>
nutes. </s></p>
