"Faraday's ice pail experiment. An ice pail P connected with gold leaves of an electroscope C, is placed on an insulating stand S. A charged conductor K, carried by a silk thread, is lowered into the pail, and finally touches it at the bottom. While it is being lowered the leaves of the electroscope diverge farther and farther, until K is well within the pail, after which they diverge no more, even when K touches the pail or is afterwards withdrawn by the insulation thread. After withdrawal, K is found to be completely discharged." -Hawkins, 1917

"Bring a metallic sphere postively charged near an insulated cylindrical conductor with hemispherical ends and provided with pith-ball and lined thread electroscopes as shown. The divergence of the pith-balls shown electrification at the ends but not at the middle of the conductor." -Avery 1895

"Lines of force of a charged sphere and a conductor under induction. The negative electrification on the end a of the cylinder indicates that an equal number of lines set out from that end." -Hawkins, 1917
