Experiments in electricity at the Pantheon and public safety
The writer rebukes a paper for partial reporting of experiments on lightning conducted at the Pantheon and related letters. He narrates how lightning damage at Purfleet board house prompted an apparatus to explain and prevent future explosions near the magazine. He discusses Franklin's early ideas and the shift to pointed conductors, noting demonstrations that carried away fluids without inviting danger. The piece challenges opponents to accept the evidenced conclusions and criticizes alleged unfounded hypotheses.
