The following note aims to bring the attention of scholars to a very fine seal (plate XIIa) in the collection of the Derbyshire Museum Service at Kedleston Road, Derby. My thanks are due to Mr D. Sorrell, County Museums Officer, for permission to publish this piece.Following Boardman, the seal may be identified as an Island gem, probably from Melos, of the early sixth century BC. The seal was acquired in 1954 from a dealer, following its purchase at auction in London (of which no details are available), and now bears the catalogue number 833:6. It consists of a small piece of green serpentine, flecked with white, shaped to a lentoid form. 5·5 mm thick at the centre, tapering to 1·75 mm at the top and bottom, it is not perfectly round, the width being 17 mm and the height 17·5 mm. A hole is drilled across its width.

In the report of the gas section of the Electrical and Gas Exhibition held at the Crystal Palace in 1884, there is an illustrated account of a gas calorimeter devised by Mr. F. W. Hartley for the purpose of testing the calorific value of the gas used in the cooking and heating apparatus shown in the exhibition. This report, which is rather inaccessible, may be seen in the library of the Patent Office in Southampton Buildings, Chancery Lane, and its catalogue number is 15,262. In this instrument the gas to be examined is passed through a delicate meter and governor, after which it is burned in a Bunsen burner in the instrument. The heat is taken from the products of combustion and the unchanged air by means of a stream of water, the rate of flow and rise of temperature of which are determined. From these observations the calorific value of the gas can be deduced. Mr. Hartley considered the very small corrections due to the effluent gas being slightly different in temperature from the surrounding air, also corrections due to adventitious loss or gain of heat, and to the change in the specific heat of water with temperature. The paper unfortunately occupies only five pages, and the construction of the details of the instrument can only be inferred from the figure.
