Synopsis
Excerpt from The Journal of the Quekett Microscopical Club, Vol. 1
The paper which I have now the honour to read before this audience is the outcome of a discovery, furnished by accident, which I was fortunate enough to make about two years ago, and to which I attach some importance, having strong reasons for believing it to be original.
A series of observations and experiments, resulting from this discovery, have led to the accumulation of a number of facts which I consider to be of sufficient interest to justify the desire to make them more generally known.
The discovery consists in the detection of fluid cavities in a fragment of material which is undoubtedly of meteoric origin at least, it was obtained under conditions which admit of no other ex planation, as I will immediately proceed to show.
