    Re: Mercury artificial horizons

    In his 1901 book the famous instrument maker William Stanley warned of
    the hazard of mercury - to sextants. "The smallest particle, if it
    touches the frame, will eat into the brass and destroy its strength."

    Several types of artificial horizon are described later in that chapter.
