Excerpt from Report on the Subject of Introducing Pure Water: Into the City of Boston
The first evidence of applying artesian wells to the draining of land, bogs, and wet ground is found in Elkington on Drain ing, though it is stated in the work, that it has been practised in Germany. His plan is, where the bog or wet ground lies upon a bed'or stratum of clay or other nonconducting material underlaid with sandy or porous strata, to bore through the impervious sheet, and allow the water to descend into the earth: In Chap. V. Page 46 is found the description of his process.
