Abstract/NotesIn 1879 the late Dr. C. O. Trechmann described in the pages of this Magazine some orthorhombic crystals from Cornish tin furnaces, which from the analyses of the late Mr. J. H. Collins were stated to be metallic tin. Shortly afterwards Baron Foullon described similar crystals from tin furnaces in Bohemia, arriving at the same results, and thus apparently confirming the observations of the previous authors. At a later date, in 1898, Dr. W. P. Headden analysed crystals of similar appearance, also from Cornish tin furnaces, which he found to be stannous sulphide (SnS), hut he stated that these crystals were monoclinic.
