Title

Replacing Mr. Rittenhouse in Adjusting the Pendulum-Proof

Description

Hodgdon's knowledge of gunpowder induces Leacock to ask him to replace Mr. Rittenhouse in adjusting the pendulum-proof. It will not take much time and will ensure that the proper adjustments are made in response to complaints regarding its accuracy. If Hodgdon consents, the Commissioners will be notified.
