    Miers Impts. in Accelerating the Evaporation of Liquid or Fluid Bodies, $c. hese objects are accomplishing, a saving of fuel is obtained, for the vapours arising from most fluids contain not only a combustible principle, but that also which supports combustion; which vapours, when brought into contact with ignited carbonaceous matters, as occur in the processes above described, 5 undergo a decomposition and evolve a considerable degree of heat. In witness whereof, I, the said John Miers, have hereunto set my hand and seal, this Nineteenth day of December, in the year of our Lord One thousand eight hundred and eleven. JNO. MIERS.
