Cryogenics in the 19th century?
« on: Tuesday 19 December 06 21:53 UTC (UK) »

Just came across this in GENUKI
"On the 15th inst., at Norton, Mr Leonard REVIS, chemist and druggist, in his 78th year. Deceased for many years carried on the first business in his line in the town of Malton"
I wonder if it was his occupation that led to this strange situation?!!  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Probably, didn't think of that one. I did think that the press could spell in those days though! (From the Malton Messenger 1857)  I suppose compulsory education hadn't been around that long .   Smiley

Ah yes, I think that's probably it! Just shows what a slight omission can do.  Grin
