A Peculiar Case of Failure in a Water Main
The accompanying sketch (Plate VII.) illustrates what, to the best of my knowledge, is a unique case of failure in a water main, and is sufficiently curious to be noted. As shown on the drawing, a hole 1 in. × ½ in. was scoured entirely through a cast-iron pipe thick and four inches inside diameter. Unfortunately the break was repaired and the lead melted out of the “bell” of the adjoining pipe before an observation could be made, so that we can only get at the cause by an examination of the injured portion of the pipe.
