| Description | Lambe writes about the effects of arsenic on animal bodies, and carries out experiments to determine which characteristic of arsenic causes its fatal effects. He examines heated arsenic, reduced arsenic, its gaseous products, and its interactions with charcoal. Corrections appear in graphite throughout; footnotes appear in ink on verso. Part 2 of Lambe's experiments, also unpublished, are found at AP/8A/12.
