In the course of these experiments he was led to the important discovery of the gas blow-pipe, which in its turn became the cause of new researches and new trains of inquiry, which not only cost him his time, but nearly cost him his life; the apparatus (as yet imperfect) having, according to Sir H. Davy's pre- diction, exploded with tremendous violence. In one of his letters to a friend, in September, 1816, he says: "I sacrificed the whole month of August to chemistry. Oh, how I did work !
