WANTED!

A reward is offered for information leading to the arrest of EDDY CURRENT charged with the induction of an eighteen year old coil named Milli Henry, found partially choked and robbed of valuable joules.

This unrectified criminal, armed with a ferrite rod, made an aerial escape from Weston Primary Cell, where he had been clamped in ions since Faraday.

With an erg to be free, his escape was carried out in three phases. First, he fused the electrolytes, then he got through a grid despite the impedance of warders whose reactance was too slow. Finally, after giving a short wave, he went to ground in a magnetic field.

Following nightfall, he stole a DC motor which was of low capacity, so he changed it for for a megacycle and is expected to return ohm via a short circuit.

Do not approach as he may offer series resistance and is a potential killer.
