Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1891, Vol. 26 IN the Harvard Collection of Meteorites there is a small specimen of a pallas iron which is very highly prized as having the Oldest authentic record. It is the main portion of a specimen which was found by Prof. F. W. Putnam in 1883 on the altar of Mound No. 4 of the Turner Group, in the Little Miami valley, Ohio. Therefore it is entered in the Harvard Catalogue as Prehistoric. Ever since the acquisition of this Prehistoric specimen, specialists have been interested in trying to identify the main mass from which the smaller individual must have come. Figure 1, Plate I., shows the Specimen of nearly its natural size as it came from the mound. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 1 The light therefore increases with n, being zero when n 1 1, and 100 per cent, or all reflected when r r: 00. This law also holds for other angles of incidence, and serves to explain many familiar phenomena. The brilliancy Of the diamond is mainly due to its high index, causing it to reflect about 20 per cent of the light falling normally on it, while glass returns but 4 per cent.
