Excerpt from Determinations of Gravity

In this form of apparatus the agate knife-edge B (see Fig. 1) is fixed on the pendulum, and this rests in use on the corresponding agate plane carried by the pendulum stand. On top of the pendulum is securely fastened, on the one side, a small silvered glass mirror A, and, on the other (in reserve), a metal one. These may be adjusted by screws so that they lie accurately parallel to the vertical plane through the kni'fe-edge.
