Abstract

Richard Allison of Stoke, Ipswich writes: As torpedoes are claiming considerable attention at the present time, I thought that a rough sketch of one constructed in the spring of 1856 by the late Captain C. J. Norton and myself would prove of some little interest." What followed was a diagram of a double cylindro-conoidal hollow vessel surrounded along its whole length by a broad screw. Ellis #187.
