I am assured by every engineer officer to whom I have spoken on the subject that the deterioration in coal due to the four different handlings which it has to undergo if landed in lighters and taken off again to ships from the coal-store cannot be put at less than 10 per cent. If anyone doubts this deterioration it would be well for him to examine reports on coal and steam trials.
The siding entered a fenced enclosure by a locked gate a gate I could have easily climbed, but I judged it wiser to go round by the bridge again and look across.

He gave concerts in Aylesbury Street, Clerkenwell, where this singular man had formed a dwelling-house, with a concert-room and a coal-store, out of what was originally a stable. On the ground-floor was the small-coal repository, and over that the concert-room very long and narrow, badly lighted, and with a ceiling so low that a tall man could scarcely stand upright in it.
