In this way a series of 50 or more photographs can be taken at the rate of 1 a minute, and they will show a continuous strip of the wall for a distance of 20 ft. or more. The win- dow, which is 13^^ by 5K in. is set in litharge cement. A guard strip is riv- eted to the tube on each side of the window. The hoisting cable is attached to the hook g, 4 in. behind the window, so that in the ordinary 6-in. drill hole the window always hangs near the wall. The mirror, lamps and reflectors are mounted ^^g- ii7.—Camera . , T , 1 y^^th. side removed. on an oak plate, which can be adjusted to bring the mirror in the right position behind the window (Fig. 117). The two lamps are 10 volts and 5 cp.
