Liquid contents are 7.55 ccs (not counting that which could not be got out by shaking, but would probably amount to about .6 cc.) The liquid was found to contain 65% alcohol and 35% water or approximately 2/3 alcohol and the remainder water. Thermostat and case returned herewith. EX. RECEIVED MAR 24 1920 HCH. | ||
