Metals should always be stored in dry, well-aired buildings, and usually on the ground floor. Iron and steel bars are stacked on end, or stored in racks. Sheet-iron, tin, sheetcopper and zinc, are well oiled, and stored on edge in racks. Tools in store are often sprinkled with quicklime or charcoal. 196. Special Compositions are used, and special methods are applied in some cases. Gun-barrels and some other small pieces of finished work are often "browned." The mixture used is thus made: 1.5 parts alcohol. 1.5 " tincture of steel; chloride of iron. 1.5 " bichloride mercury. 1.5 " sweet spirits of nitre. 1.0 " blue vitriol. 0.75 " nitric acid. These are mixed and dissolved in a quart of pure water. The piece to be browned is very carefully cleaned, and is given a clear, fresh metallic surface, by the use of fine emery or the file, and all grease is removed by rubbing with limedust. The surface is then rusted by 24 hours' exposure to the air, and is next well scrubbed with a steel scratch-brush. The browning mixture is then applied at intervals of several hours, the rust produced during each period being well rubbed in with the brush before applying the next coat. When well browned, the surface is washed in hot water, and, when dry and cold, it is well oiled. A varnish of shellac and dragon's blood, dissolved in alcohol, is used when desired. Lacquer for iron ordnance is made of 12 parts black lead. 12 " red lead. 5 " litharge. 5 &quo...

Tens of thousands of people were persecuted and put to death as witches between 1400 and 1700 – the great age of witch hunts. Why did the witch hunts arise, flourish and decline during this period? What purpose did the persecutions serve? Who was accused, and what was the role of magic in the hunts? This important reassessment of witch panics and persecutions in Europeand colonial America both challenges and enhances existing interpretations of the phenomenon. Locating its origins 400 years earlier in the growing perception of threats to Western Christendom, Robert Thurston outlines the development of a ‘persecuting society’ in which campaigns against scapegoats such as heretics, Jews, lepers and homosexuals set the scene for the later witch hunts. He examines the creation of the witch stereotype and looks at how the early trials and hunts evolved, with the shift from accusatory to inquisitorial court procedures and reliance upon confessions leading to the increasing use of torture., Hardcover, Edition: 2, Label: Routledge, Routledge, Product group: Book, Published: 2015-11-24, Studio: Routledge.
