Friday the 13th April 1945 the usual officials did not come to fetch the men but a little later than usual the Gaschwyz sic column was called so we assembled and left for work about 20 of us. There was a lot of activity in the station yard German military vehicles were coming and going and a contingent of unarmed Russian fatigue men were on parade.' A typically vivid passage reads: 'In the morning of the 24th April I heard chaps reporting prisoners passing through and our guards not interfering a lot of Indians were going through without any guards. Chaps with kit got up early because of being cold. I got up after seven and went outside and saw the Indians going through. A column of Russian prisoners appeared with guards and were halted just outside. The German guards were standing about in groups talking to each other and taking no notice of the prisoners some of whom were already making off. A man got up on a cart and addressed us he said he couldn't advise us to go he couldn't advise us to stay the German commandant had said that if we stayed he would do his best to obtain food for us there was a horse dying in the next village and he had the first refusal of it if it expired and we should have it.'

1835réf. 42285London Richard Taylor 1835. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1835 - Part II. Pp. 263-274. Clean and fine. First appearance of this paper in which Faraday describes his improvements of the Voltaic battery."This paper relates altogether to the practical construction and use of the voltaic battery. Guided by the principles developed in former series the author concluded that in voltaic instruments in which the copper surrounded the zinc there was no occasion for insulation of the contiguos coppers provided they did not come into metallic contact; and therefore in the cionstruction of some new instruments he interposed paper only between the coppers instead of the usual insulating plate of porcelain or glass."Abstract.From 1831 to 1852 Michael Faraday published his "Experimental Researches in Electricity" in The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. These papers contain not only an impressive series of experimental discoveries but also a collection of heterodox theoretical concepts on the nature of these phenomena expressed in terms of lines of forces and fields. He published 30 papers in all under this general title.They represents Faraday's most importent work are classics in both chemistry and physics and are the experimental foundations for Maxwell's electro-magnetic theory of light using Faraday's concepts of lines of force or tubes of magnetic and electrical forces. His many experiments on the effects of electricity and magnetism presented in these papers lead to the fundamental discoveries of 'induced electricity' the Farday current the electronic state of matter the identity of electricity from different sources equivalents in electro-chemical decomposition electrostatic induction hydro-electricity diamagnetism relation of gravity to electricity atmospheric magnetism and many other."Among experimental philosophers Faraday holds by universal consent the foremost place. The memoirs in which his discoveries are enshrined will never ceaseto be read with admiration and delight; and future generations will preserve with an affection not less enduring the personal records and familiar letters which recall the memory of his humble and unselfish spirit."Edmund Whittaker in A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity. unknown
