The round top is perhaps three feet in diameter at the top, and about nine feet in the bosh or widest portion, the stack being built large in the middle, from which it gradually tapers smaller toward the top and to the bottom or hearth. The latter consists of from twenty to forty stones laid very compactly and symmetrically like the concave of a bowl.

This quantity of of ore furnishes from fourteen to fifteen tons of iron dally or about 100 tons in a week. The charcoal used is obtained from the woods of the surrounding region. Continually mixed with the ore and charcoal in the stack is a quantity of...
