	Gentleman's Magazine 1747 p.224 these are placed behind the wheel, as in Fig. 1. the lever being moved by the pin as abovesaid, immediately moves a pin of the inside work. A third sort having a single hand only in the centre, with a dial in all respects resembling Fig. 1. having four indexes; the first moves once round in a certain number of rods, the second in one mile, the third, or centre hand in 20 miles, and the fourth in 500 miles. One of these will cost but 25 shillings, without a case, varnishing or silvering; but if varnished, and silvered in all respects as a clock dial, one guinea and a half. The others are from two to four guineas, and eight guineas if with bells to strike the miles and quarters on pulling a string; one of which may be seen at Mr Neale's, watchmaker in Leadenhall-street, who has a patent for making several astronomical machines, &c. and where proposals at length may be had, or at St John's Gate.
