Standing on gravel in the bat- 364 tery of the Penzance Artillery Corps; an open position, but the gauge has to be moved whenever drill is going on.

Gauge standing loosely on funnel, not 365. level, and shut in on the south by rows of beans; the old observer had left, and the new gardener was not aware of the importance of accuracy. This gauge is a very old one inserted in the masonry of the new observatory tower built by the Meteorological 366.

Committee. It will not give even the rainfall on the tower correctly, as its rim is only an inch or two above the masonry, and therefore insplashing is inevitable.

Very good position in the large 367. garden of the station.

Funnel fits loosely on can, and is 368. prevented from being blown away by a large stone placed in it. Position not good, but no better available.

Funnel very old, had been previously 369. repaired many times, but was coming to pieces; recommended that it should be repaired once more, and recorded simultaneously with a new gauge to be placed by its side on the roof. In garden, E.S.E. of St. Agnes' 370. church; fair position, but very rough gauge. The measuringglass had been broken, and mended with sealing-wax and a cork. Good gauge, in good position.
