To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cregier's observations on the condition of the water in the lake show that it is seldom turbid more than three days at any time, very rarely as much as five. Judging from these circumstances, it would seem that a subsiding reservoir that would hold a supply for five days, ought to be sufficient for two years to come, to give to the city clear water at all times, with perhaps rare exceptions. It is evident, however, that a large amount would filter through the sides of the reservoir, in case the... material should be porous, and the surface drawn down below that of the lake ; enough in five days probably, to supply the city one ; thus rendering it unnecessary to give the reservoir a caj^acity to hold over 40,000,000 at low water level. The longest storms are in the spring, a season in which the average daily consumption is rather less than more than that of the whole year. Such a reservoir should be at least 12 feet deep, thoroughly pro- tected from the storms of the lake, and for the sake of both strength and economy, circular in form.
