Excerpt from A Review of the Report of the Water Commissioners of 1845: With an Examination of Some of Its Statements and Estimates But these commissioners did see fit to go on and make observations for themselves. It is needless, and it would be tedious, to follow them through all the labyrinth of detail, which constitutes their description of this operation. I go, at once, to the results, as stated on p. 14. It here appears that, during 85 days, (near 3 months, ) the average proportion of the whole fall of rain on the dist'rict, during that period, which passed into the pond, was less than less than for 3 months, when they knew that, for 12 months, it must be near or near 4 times as great.
