s

<
s
>The particles of medium size generally
<
lb

settle in the middle part of the buddle, where they are arrested by interwoven
<
lb

fir twigs. </
s

<
s
>The mud which flows down with the water settles between the
<
lb
/>
twigs and the board which closes the lower end of the buddle. </
s

<
s
>The tin-stone
<
lb
/>
of large size is removed separately from the buddle with a shovel; those
<
lb
/>
of medium size are also removed separately, and likewise the mud is removed
<
lb
/>
separately, for they are separately washed on the canvas strakes and on
<
lb
/>
the ordinary strake, and separately roasted and smelted. </
s

<
s
>The tin-stone
<
lb
/>
which has settled in the middle part of the buddle, is also always washed
<
lb
/>
separately on the canvas strakes; but if the particles are nearly equal in size
<
lb
/>
to those which have settled in the upper part of the buddle, they are washed
<
lb
/>
with them in the ordinary strake and are roasted and smelted with them.

</
s

<
s
>However, the mud is never washed with the others, either on the canvas
<
lb
/>
strakes or on the ordinary strake, but separately, and the fine tin-stone which
<
lb
/>
is obtained from it is roasted and smelted separately. </
s
>
<
s
>The two large buddles
<
lb
/>
discharge into a cross trough, and it again empties through a launder into
<
lb
/>
a settling-pit which is outside the building.</
