Collectively they may relieve the main trunk and with the aid of the escapes do all that is required without the aid of the relulator des- -cribed in the [1st?] section. Practice and the electric telegraph will render these works of the highest value and importance to the regulation of supply. They come under the following heads A. Head of the Futtigurh Branch B.

The Futtigurh Branch leaves the main trunk on the left at the 50th mile of its course at an angle of 60° degrees; its supply is calculated at 1240 cubic feet per second, and the main trunk after having dis- -posed of this supply passes onwards in a volume equal to 5180 cubic feet per second. The slopes of the channels of both the branch and main trunk are equal [?] 15 inches per mile, and the soil through which they pass consists of a combination of clay and sand in which the latter predominates.

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
