Excerpt from Annals of Philosophy, or Magazine of Chemistry, Mineralogy, Mechanics, Natural History, Agriculture, and the Arts, Vol. 8: July to December, 1816 But as I regarded it to be a matter of considerable importance in a subject of this nature to procure correct information while it could be had, I took advantage of a late visit to Birmingham to Mr. Watt, as the only rson ca ble of setting the dispute entirety at rest. Fortunately r. Watt hits preserved copies of all his letters since the time that he invented the ing press, which was in 1782, or the earlier. He was soch iglng as to allow me to cxaminet e tters. Out of several relating to the new mode of bleaching, I shall notice two, of the earliest dates that I could find, relative to this process. It may be necessary to mention, in the first place, that Mr. Watt was in Paris in 1786, that he left it before the end of that year, and that it was during this visit that Berthollet communicated to him the new process of bleaching.
