"Your's truly, "E. FG." FitzGerald having made up his mind to give Posh a lift by going into partnership with him began by finding not only the money for the building of the boat but a name for her when she should be ready for sea. It seemed to him that "Meum and Tuum" would be an appropriate name, and the Mum Tum is remembered along the coast to this day as a queer, meaningless title for a boat.
"You will buy such things as you spoke of wanting at the Lowestoft Sales if they go at a reasonable price. As to the claim made by your Yawl, I suppose it will come down to half. The builders are coming to my house again next week, I believe, having left their work undone. "Now, here is a Letter for your Mantelpiece to-morrow Sunday I don't think I have more to say. "Yours E. FG. "Mr.
It is to be shown that the time of passage of light along AB and BC taken together, is the shortest that can be. Let us assume that it may have come by other lines, and, in the first place, along AF, FC, so that the point of refraction F may be further from B than the point A; and let AO be a line perpendicular to AB, and FO parallel to AB; BH perpendicular to FO, and FG to BC.
It was a bitter winter, and Posh, he thought, was not over-hale. "WOODBRIDGE, Saturday. "Whatever is to be done about the money, do not you go over to Southwold while this weather lasts. I think it is colder than I ever knew. Perhaps it may be as well at Southwold as at Lowestoft. "I wish you were here to play Allfours with me To-night. "Yours, "E. FG."
The chief property of Refraction is that a ray of light, such as AB, being in the air, and falling obliquely upon the polished surface of a transparent body, such as FG, is broken at the point of incidence B, in such a way that with the straight line DBE which cuts the surface perpendicularly it makes an angle CBE less than ABD which it made with the same perpendicular when in the air.
I believe that we are in for a spell of such weather: but I suppose you have no thought of going Westward now. Silver used should be sent to you. But do not you wait for it, if you want to be about the Lugger at once. The paint will keep for another time: and I suppose that the sooner the Lugger is afloat this hot and dry weather the better. "Remember me to your Family. "Yours always, "E. FG."
Your mare is well, and the sore on her Shoulder nearly gone. Mr. and Mrs. Howe send their Regards. Cowell is gone off to Devonshire instead of coming to meet me at Lowestoft: but I dare say I shall run over there again before long. "Yours always, "E. FG." The "little Sapphire" I cannot identify. One gentleman has been kind enough to try to help me, and thinks that she was the Scandal.
She said Yes; drinking rum-flip till two in the morning. She says it was Newson's doing, but I think you should have told me at once, particularly as your not doing so left me with some suspicion of the Landlady's fair dealing. You did not choose to leave the blame to Newson, I suppose, but I think I deserve the truth at your hands as much as he does the concealment of it. "Yours, "E. FG." Mr.
Then the point E in OC produced will have the motion EF perpendicular to OE, of a magnitude determined by producing OA to cut this perpendicular in F. But since the intersection E of the crank produced is to be with a vertical line through the other end of the rod, the instantaneous axis has a motion which, so far as it depends upon the movement of C only, is in the direction DE. Therefore EF is a component, whose resultant EG is found by drawing FG perpendicular to EF. Now D is moving to the left with a velocity which may be determined either by drawing through A a perpendicular to CD, and through C a horizontal line to cut this perpendicular in H, or by making the angle DEI equal to the angle CEA, giving on DO the distance DI, equal to CH. Make EK = DI or CH, complete the rectangle KEGL, and its diagonal ES is, finally, the motion of the instantaneous axis.
Kerrich who died suddenly this day week and I suppose is being buried this very day. "Yours, E. FG. "Mr. Berry tells me that the Poultry Show here is on Thursday. You can, as I say, come any Day you please. I see the Wind is got West, after the squalls of Hail." He was one of FitzGerald's favourites. Mr.
