Parallel and alike-situate, or not. Secondly, the gauging of any wine, brandy, or oyl cask; be the same assum'd as sphæroidal, parabolical, conical, or cylindrical; either full, or partly empty, and at any position of the cask, or altitude of contained liquor: performed either by brief calculation, or instrumental operation. Together with a large table of area's of a circles segments, and other necessary tables, & their excellent utilities and emprovements; with a copious and methodical index of the whole; rendring the work perspicuous and intelligible to mean capacities. / By John Smith, philo-accomptant.
