NOVA ANALYSIS AQUARUM MEDEVIENSIUM

Aquę Medevienses a Cel. BERGMAN primum justa & consummata analysi chemica exploratę sunt. In actis Reg. Acad. Scient. Holm. An. 1783. P. 4, p. 218, hanc suam disquisitionem exposuit. Sed Cel. Medicus S. R. M. Primarius etc. D. Doct. S. HEDIN, hujus institutionis pręfenti tempore curator (Brunns Intendent,) cum variare interdum naturam fontium & elementorum rationem, assiduis nobilissimorum chemicorum investigationibus confirmatum esse, & in recentissimis pręterea chemię profectibus majora ad disquisitiones hujus generis subtilius instituendas subsidia esse posita reputaverit, ęstate superiori novam analysin suscipiendam esse censuit; eamque mihi, ad Medevi vices Chirurgi, ejus auspicio, tunc gerenti, mandavit. Quam cura diligentiaque quanta maxima potuerim peractam, propter magnam ab experientia summi viri discrepantiam, eorum. qui his rebus student, judicio esse submittendam existimavi. Et cum etjam celebratum Loka fontem limumque, antea rite consummateque non examinatum, eadem hac pręterita ęstate, ab ejus curatore D:o Doct. etc. ASCHAN sollicitatus, adcurate sim perscrutatus, brevem ejus descriptionem, reservata in aliam occasionem copiosiori experimentorum expositione, adjungere, ob materię similitudinem, institui.

Ex tribus fontibus, quibus jam uti licet, unus tantum, & is infimus, ante nostram ętatem scaturivit. Olim quidem tres etjam numero fuerunt fontes; duo autem reliqui, quos Cel. BERGMAN Rödbrunn & Dahlbrunn appellat, jam ita cessaverunt, ut ne locum quidem ubi siti fuerint, reperire potuerim. At curante Cel. HEDIN alii duo nuper aperti sunt & ędiculis belle superstructis hoc anno consummatis, tecti; ut pauperibus usui essent, quibus antea circa horam tertiam matutinam surgendi, necessitas erat, ne ex unica scaturigine petita aqua opulentioribus ad horam sextam fontem adeuntibus deesset.

Vetus sive infimus fons.

Situs ejus est aliquanto depressior, ita tamen ut defluxus sit facilis. Intra ędificium alto muro circumdatur, qui ad ęquabile frigus conservandum plurimum confert. Profundus est V pedes. Cantharos circiter LX per horam effundit, cli temporisque varietate parum affectus. Temperatura in superficie + 6,ŗ5; ad fundum 6,ŗ intra menses ęstivos non mutata. Sapor asper, multis nauseosus. Odor concussione exprimitur hepaticus. In aperto vase sensim oxidum ferri demittit, & odorem saporemque asperum perdit. Tincturam Heliotropii rubefacit, at non post coctionem ferrive demissionem. Calce soluta turbatur, sed non post coctionem. Acidum carbonicum in aqua ita prodi docent, si primo calcis solutionem turbaverit, uberius autem adfusa solverit quę pręcipitata erant; quod vero hic non incidit, cum ferrum etjam pręcipitetur, ex quo pręcipitarum flavescit; in aqua autem nihil vel parum adsir liberi acidi carbonici. Cum acido sulphurico forti nulla effervescentia. Solutiones Fernambuci aut Curcumę non mutatę. Cum ac. gallaceo color violaceus; prussiate kali cęruleus purissimus; ex quo post quietem XXIV horarum prussias ferri depositus; utrumque in aqua cocta inefficax. Acidum oxalicum paullulum permutavit, sed non in cruda solum, verum etjam in cocta; quod sulphatem calcis prodit. Carbonas kali nihil. Natrum purum post horas XXIV luteolum pręcipitatum effecit. Similiter ammoniacum. Aliquantulum ac. azotici in aquę portionem instillabatur, quę dein azotate barytę pręcipitabatur: pauxillum illud, quod post h. XXIV demissum erat, inde separabatur, quo facto aqua azotate argenti pręcipitabatur; hoc pręcipitatum suisse muriatem argenti exinde colligimus, quod luci expositum nigrescebat; quod in carbonatibus argenti non accidit. Azotas hydrargyri frigide pręparatus album dedit & subtile pręcipitatum, ad labra vitri adhęrens, & vix sensibile antequam aqua effusa, vitrum aruisser. Azotas hydr. calide pręparatus & azotas plumbi pręcipitata fecerunt e luteo candicantia. Ad detegendum in aqua hydrogenium sulphuratum multa sunt a chemicis proposita, at pleraque non nisi in aquis saturatoribus efficacia. Ejusmodi sunt: argentum metallicum; sed in fonte suspensus nummus argenteus bene politus post IIX dies ęque splendebat; oxidum arsenici album; id vero in hac aqua ęquali tempore nihil passum est; acidum azoticum conc. quod, hydrogenium oxidando sulphur pręcipitare docent; illud autem heic nihil tale effecit. Nihilominus olfactus hydrogenii sulphurati in hac aqua index certissimus est. Azotas plumbi in forma sicca ad hydr. sulph. valde sensibilis est; at solurus, propter suam ad aquam attractionem, sulphure difficilius decomponitur. Scribebam autem hac solutione in charta, quę vasi, in quo aqua fontana evaporaretur, superimponebatur: vas sensim calefactum est, ut gas hydr. sulph. quantum fieri posset siccum eliceretur: qua re etjam factum est, ut litterę seriptę, pro varia gasis siccitate, quibusdam in locis metallice splenderent & nigrescerent; aliis magis minusve perspicuę, aliis non observabiles essent.

Post hęc experimenta pręcursoria, nostra in eo verfat, est opera, ut quę in hac aqua soluta sint gasia fecernerentur. Quantum aquę Cantharus unus capere potest [1] in vas retortum vitreum instillabatur ejus magnitudinis, ut tertia pars vacua maneret: orificium subere obturabatur, per quod aptatus erat tubus vitreus; cui vesica arcte adligabatur. Tubus ad apparatum pneumaticium ducebat. Aqua, qua hunc appatatum impleveram, quartam horę partem cocta erat, & jam intra temperaturam + 85ŗ & 100ŗ, igne subtus facto, servabatur. Supra enim in recipulo pneumatico olei stratum fluitabat, ne, experimento peracto, gas ab aqua refrigerata imbiberetur. Quamquam aqua, ut diximus, antea diu servisset, bullę tamen aėris jam exinde per oleum adscendentes animadvertebantur, ex cucurbita non venientes. Gas, quod in apparatu pneumatico, postquam aqua in cucurbita horę tres quartas partes servisset, receptum erat, minoris aliquanto voluminis fuit eo, quod supra aquam in cucurbita fuerat, utroque in eadem temperatura menso; ex quo sequitur, vapores aquosos non omnem ex superiori cucurbitę parte aėrem expulisse; quapropter hac methodo nihil certi de quantitate naturave gasium in aqua fontana solutorum eruere licet. Alia igitur utendum erat. Nec apparatum a Cel. BERGMAN (Om Bitter-, Selzer-, Spa- och Pyrmontervattens halt och tillredning, § 8. Fig. 1.) comparare poteram. Hanc igitur, scopo, ut videtur, optime inservientem experiundi rationem inveni. Orificium lagenę vitreę, adcurate ejus capacitatem emensus, subere optimo obturabam, per quod tubus vitreus, ut in experimentis pneumaticis solet, curvatus ingerebatur ita, ut altera ejus extremitas ultra suber in lagena non exstaret. Et lagena & huic ita adjunctus tubus aqua examinanda implebantur, ne minima quidem aėris atmosphęrici bulla observabili relicta. Lagena ad commissuram luto vesicaque rite munita, in balneo arenę ponebatur. Apparatu pneumatico eodem as supra utebar; sed jam aqua plus horam ante initium experimenti fervisser. (Vas, in quo fervebat, ejus capacitatis erat, ut quod exhalaret cruda aqua compensare opus non esset). In ipso recipulo apparatus aqua, ut ante, oleo operiebatur. Huic methodo aliquis objicere forsitan posset, aquam fontanam in lagena calore valde dilatari ante quam gasia exinde abeant; ita partem expelli & amitti. Sed ubi hęc pars aquę venerit in aquam bullientem apparatus pneumatici sub recipulum, gasia, quibus pręgnans est, mox hujus calore in formam nativam restituta, effugere nequeunt. Postquam horę dimidium aqua in lagena fervisset, summovebatur sensim ignis ad cautam refrigerationem. In temperatura +17ŗ volumen gasium dimensum fuit 6,5 pollicum cubicorum decimalium pro quoque cantharo. Cel. BERGMAN 14 p. cub. ex. Cantharo accepit. Hęc discrepantia experimentum pluries iterare jussit; idem autem semper fuit eventus, si aberrationem 1/2 vel 3/4 p. c. exceperis, tribuendam temperaturę , quam omnino ęqualem obtinere non poteram. Iuncturam autem nec rimis latentibus fefellisse, tum illius post singula experimenta sollicita exploratio demonstravit, cum regressus aquę ex apparatu pneumatico in lagenam frigescentem.

[1] Hoc loco & in sequentibas mensura coronata & accurate explorata utebar.

Ad vulgare pręscriptum solutio calcis in gase his experimentis collecto collocabatur. Post XXXVI horas ex 6,5 p. c. dimidius tantum restabat, quam aėra esse atmosphęricum gas azoticum oxigenatum indicavit. Quorsum igitur gas hydrogenium sulphuratum, quod aquę inesse certo sciebam? Id quo intėlligerem, lagenam, hoc gase, pręparato ex sulphureto ferri ac acido sulphurico diluto, impletam supra calcem aqua solutam collocavi. Post XIV horas X p. c. absorpti erant; supererat unus cum dimidio p. c., post XXIV horas nihil diminutus; quem esse atmosphęricum, gase azotico oxigenato exploravi. Gas hydr. sulph. & gas acidi carbonici ad ęqualia volumina commixta & eidem experimento subjecta, ab aqua calcarea, uno p. c. relicto,. absorbebantur. Solutionis calcareę in his experimentis, & pręcipue in superiori, color erat luteoalbidus, odor saporque sulphureti calcarei; solutio sensim sulphatem calcis deponendo turbabatur, quod tamen in posteriori propter carbonatem calcis simul pręcipitatum discerni non poterat. Ex quibus intelligitur, diminutionem supra descriptam gasis aquę examinandę non acido tantum carbonico sed gasi etjam hydr. sulph. esse tribuendam. Horum igitur gasium quantitates alia via dignoscendę sunt. Eum in finem unum aquę fontanę Cantharum in vase operto calce pręcipitabam; pręcipitatum, cujus pondus erat = 0,085 [2] ex oxido ferri = 0,020, carbonate calcis magnesięque aquę proprio, aliis experimentis noto = 0,035, & carbonate calcis jam generato, cujus igitur pondus = 0,030, constabat. Si pondera carbonatis calcis & acidi carb. quod continet, sunt inter se = 100:43, oritur exinde pondus acidi carbonici ex aqua fontana recepti = 0,014; ex quo tamen volumen gasis ejus haud facile inveniri potest.

[2] Unitas ponderis per totam banc disfertationem = 1/4 lod viktualie-vigt = 1 drachma 7 1/2 gr. = 1 centner prober-vigt.

Unde autem oritur hujus aquę gas hydrogenium sulphuratum? In quibusdam aquis non dubium est quin originem debeat sulphureto calcis, quod, dum ex aqua oxidatur, ideoque gas hydrogenium generat, illi sulphuris aliquid tradit; ipsum autem in sulphatem calcis transit, qui circum tales fontes, forma pulveris albi, se manifestat. In aqua Medeviensi sulphas quidem calcis adest, quem primo sulphuretum fuisse posse, deinde vero oxidatum, hoc gas, ut diximus, produxisse, haud quidem districte negaverim, vero tamen similius esse existimaverim, a stratis corporum organicorum putrefactorum vel putrescentium, per quę vena transit, idem illud gas originem duxisse, quippe quod destructione animalium vegetabiliumque generari, ideoque ex stagnosis limosisque locis, pręsertim commotione quadam facta, exhalari noverimus. Per hanc hypothesin explicatur etjam ortus gasis hydrogenii carbonati, quod in hoc & pluribus aliis Svecię fontibus adesse, cum alia fere desint ipsius indicia, sapor peculiaris certe arguit; quamquam ejus quantitas, propter minorem in aqua solubilitatem longe minor sit, necesse est; nec determinari potest nisi combustione; quam experiri, defectus instrumentorum prohibuit.

Ex quovis fonte V Cantharos, in vase vitreo, unum cum dimidio cancharum capiente, singulos vaporare curavi. Massa sicca caute colligebatur, & quod vitro arctius adhęrebat, acido muriatico diluto abluebatur & solutioni N. 5 addebatur. Massę in temp. + 108 siccatę pondus =0,575.

1. Massa diligenter aqua eluebatur & liquidum siphone secernebatur, quo colatio evitaretur. Hęc aqua deinceps ad siccum vaporabat, supra infundebatur alcohol, qui non solutum reliquit album terrestre = 0,025, quod experimentis infra enarrandis sulphatem calcis esse reperi.

2. Solutio alcoholina lente evaporabatur; fusca erat, & crystallos muriatis natri facile agnoscibiles in reliqua massa fusca deliquescibili dabat [3]. Pondus totius massę = 0,150. In aqua solvebatur, cui solutioni admistum ammoniacum purum nihil mutavit; sed azotate barytę pręcipitatum efficiebatur, quod lotum siccatumque erat = 0,01. & azotate argenti pręcipitatum cinereum, in lamella vitrea supra ignem odorem empyreumaticum spargens, quo manifestatur extractum vegetabile: id igitur coctione cum acido azotico conc. destruebatur; quod hujus acidi supererat, ammoniaco dein saturabatur, quod primo pręcipitatum faciebat, mox solvebat; quapropter acidum muriaticum ad saporem acidulum addebatur. Murias argenti bene elotus & siccatus niveo fuit colore & pondere = 0,240.

[3] Sales cum extracto conjunctos difficulter crystallisari, notisi mum est.

3. Ex reliqua solutionis parte argentum superfluum muriate ammoniaci pręcipitabatur: dein inspissabatur, nihilque acido oxalico tartaricove afficiebatur; quapropter nec kali nec calcem habebat.

4. Residuum ex lotione cum aqua N. 1 cum alcohole eluebatur, quod evaporando dedit refinam odoram fuscam = 0,005.

5. Residuum ex massa alcohole elota N. 4 acido muriatico diluto solvebatur; solutio secernebatur, & quod solutum non erat, aqua eluebatur, quę dein solutioni admiscebatur. Hęc ad dimidiam partem evaporata ammoniaco pręcipitabatur; pręcipitatum elotum fuit = 0,15. Reliqua solutio, cum aqua lotionis, carbonete ammoniaci pręcipitabatur, quod carbonatem calcis = 0,125 dedit. Calcem fuisse inde colligitur, quod cum acido sulphurico sal difficulter solubile efficiebat, nec carbonare ammoniaci solvebatur; ideoque magnesia non erat.

6. Quod ammoniaco pręcipitatum erat, in acido sulphurico solvebatur; residua erat magnesia, quę acid. sulph. dilato difficulter solvitur, si pura est; pondus erat = 0,03. Acido muriatico soluta carbonate ammoniaci procipitabatur [4] & mox ab eo solvebatur; quę magnesię nota est.

[4] BERGMAN & secundum eum plures alii, magnesię ad acida attractionem majorem statuunt quam ammoniaci. Alii negant; cum ex acid. sulphurico ammoniaco pręcipitetur. BERGMAN (In Opusculis T. 3 p. 317 & 337) hoc pręcipitatum inde oriri contendit quod in solutione sal tripliciter compositum generaretur. Qua de re hęc sequentia ipse sum expertus. Si Murias magnesię cum carbonate kali pręcipitatur, usque dum reagat alcali, & pręcipitatum inde separatur, pręcipitari dein potest cum ammoniaco puro nova magnesię portio. Idem evenit, si ordine inverso primo adhibetur ammoniacum purum & deinde Carbonas kali. Sulphas magnesię carbonate kali totus decomponitur; at si plus carbonatis kali additur, solvitur iterum praecipitatum, & post horas quasdam crystalli formantur. Idem evenit, si pręcipitatio ope carbonatis ammoniaci perficitur. Etjam ex muriate magnesię pręcipitando formantur hi sales; si solutio valde diluta est, nihil carbonate ammoniaci praecipitatur; si aliquantom puri ammoniaci additur, pręcipitatum oritur quod carbonate ammoniaci, si sufficiens ejus quantitas adsit, solvitur & crystallisatur eam in formam, quam BERGMAN, Opusc. T. 1 Tab. 1. depinxit & carbonatis magnesię esse dixit; sed. ut ex allatis sequitur, ammoniacum etjam continet, quod in auctiore calore effugit, & magnesię carbonatem pulverulentum relinquit. Solutio muriatis magnesię valde diluta non pręcipitatur carbonate ammoniaci, sed tantum si concentrata sit; tum autem pręcipitatum est triplex ille sal, cujus supra mentionem fecimus, sere difficulter solubilis. Carbonates alcalium solvunt carbonatem magnesię, & efficiunt sales crystallisabiles difficulter solubiles. Murias ammoniaci carbonatem magnesię solvit, sed pars decomponitur & sal triplex nascitur. Alcalia pura solvunt carbonatem magnesię ita, ut se acido carbonico saturent, & quod superest carbonatis magnesię solvant; quod de ammoniaco non valet; cum carbonas ammoniaci puram magnesiam ita solvat, ut hęe primum ab ammoniaco rapiat ad se acidum carbonicum. Fourcroy & Vauquelin, in analysi urinę, Bulletin des Sciences An. 1798 N. IX, propensitatem magnesię ad triplicem conjunctionem cum ammoniaco & acido phosphorico memoraverunt. Hęc magnesię proprietas accuratiore disquisitione digna esse vi detur.

Solutio in acido sulphurico facta, ad siccum evaporabatur; quod dum fiebat, crystalli sulphatis calcis formabantur: massa sicca ustulabatur donec effugisset ac. sulphuricum; residui pondus = 0,125; quę ponderis auctio majori ferri oxidationi tribuenda esse videretur, quam etjam color & vapores acidi sulphurosi indicabant.

7. Massa usta lavabatur aqua, ex qua nec ammoniacum nec carbonates alcalium aliquid pręcipitabant. Dein ac. muriatico solvebatur, ex qua solutione murias barytę pręcipitatum effecir, quod sulphatem calcis = 0,02 adhuc remansisse indicabat. Etjam oxalas kali calcis pręsentiam docebat. Puro ammoniaco oxidum ferri purum pręcipitabatur = 0,10.

8. Solutio N. 5, ex qua calx carbonate ammoniaci pręcipitate erat, in siccum evaporabatur; cum acido sulphurico miscebatur & urebatur donec acid, muriaticum effugisset; iterum solvebatur, & ammoniaco pręcipitabatur; quo secernebatur magnesia = 0,02.

9. Quod post solutionem in acido muriatico supererat, aqua difficulter solvebatur; at aqua postquam diutius superinfusa mansisset, & solutione barytę & acid. oxalico pręcipitabatur; coctum in carbonate natri generavit sulphatem natri, & quod non solvebatur, effervescebat aliquantulum, adfuso acido quodam; fuit igitur sulphas calcis = 0,140.

Hę omnes rationes si conferuntur; animadvertitur auctio = 0,040, quę tribuenda est iis particulis, quę ex vase, in quo facta erat evaporatio, acido muriatico eluebantur.

Salis N. 2 pondus erat = 0,150; murias argenti = 0,240 continet ac. muriaticum = 0,043, quod ad plenam saturarionem requirit natrum = 0,065 & aquam ad crystallisandum = 0,022, quo quantitas muratis narri invenitur = 0,130. Sulphas barytę, ibidiem, = 0,010 continet ac. sulphuricum = 0,003; quod saturatur natro = 0,005, ex quo quantitas sulphatis natri = 0,08. Residuum fuit extractum & aqua & alcohole solubile = 0,012.

Sequens tabula exhiber, quantum ex meis quidem experimentis concludere licuit, quantitates corporum in quovis hujus aquę cantharo solutorum; cui adjungitur tabula Cel. Prof. BERGMAN, loco supra citato allata.

1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the Foundation” or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the United States and you are located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg™ works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg™ name associated with the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg™ License when you share it without charge with others.

1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project Gutenberg™ work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any country other than the United States.

1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:

1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg™ License must appear prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg™ work (any work on which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” appears, or with which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed, copied or distributed:

This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the United States, you will have to check the laws of the country where you are located before using this eBook.

1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase “Project Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg™ trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is posted with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked to the Project Gutenberg™ License for all works posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.

1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg™ License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg™.

1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project Gutenberg™ License.

1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary, compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg™ work in a format other than “Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other format used in the official version posted on the official Project Gutenberg™ website (www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original “Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg™ License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying, performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg™ works unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing access to or distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works provided that:

- • You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from the use of Project Gutenberg™ works calculated using the method you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, but he has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in Section 4, “Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.”

- • You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™ License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg™ works.

- • You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of receipt of the work.

- • You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.

1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you ‘AS-IS’, WITH NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone providing copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works in accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
