Should JH be attending the B.A.A.S. meeting at Cork, hopes he will visit WP and spend a few days with him. Gives news of the progress of his great telescope.
Has never seen the great nebula of Andromeda satisfactorily resolved; comments on this and gives some of his observations. Will be going to Brighton and then take his family to London for Easter.
Examined the nebula of Andromeda the night before last with his three-foot instrument. Comments on his observations and the sketch made by [W. C.?] Bond. Would require several good nights to make a sketch of value.
About adjudication of R.S.L. medals.
Will call for JH's [Cape Results] when in London. One of WP's assistants reported ring around Neptune last winter, but WP is skeptical. Instruments idle for nine months. WP too busy with [Irish famine] relief. Wrote to T. R. Robinson to find competent assistant.
