1. The samples were dried and the woody fibre and extract were also
dried at 212 degs. The watery infusions of all contained ammoniacal
salts. The salts from the ash, which were soluble in water,
consisted of sulphates, carbonates, phosphates, and chlorides; the
bases being potassa and lime. The solution by hydrochloric acid
contained lime, alumina, phosphate of lime, and oxide of iron.

3. Contained oxide of manganese in small quantity; sulphates in
watery solution of ash abundant. Hydrochloric solution contained an
abundance of lime.
