    Decent image of the Table of Fire?

    Does anyone have a decent image or reproduction of the Table of fire that is on the inside lid of the Caisson?
    It's possible it's been posted here somewhere but I am blind (they let me shoot the cannon, seriously)
    thank you

    He cannot read the label properly, I believe A.P Hill, rather than not understanding it.
    I cannot read it on my system either, but I am running on a potato.

    I'm just after a nice clear image or repro of it is all.

    Looking to repro it locally, give it the old treatment like we do our Piracy docs then stick it by my monitor

    Which manual is that? Instruction for Field Artillery looks different. As well they say not to fire beyond 350y with cannister.
