ruzuzu commented on the word the conical bearing of Gamhey
See the Century Dictionary definition of theodolite, which has the following: "Except for an excessively thin layer of oil, the brass movable part bears directly on the steel, and its weight tends to keep it centered. The pressure is relieved by a small plate of some elasticity fastened to the movable part over the axis and adjustable with screws. It is thus made to turn, as nearly as possible, about a mathematical line. This is the conical bearing of Gamhey."

Now I'm guessing "Gamhey" should be "Gambey". I'll put a new citation over on theodolite.
