Summary:
Will do all in his power to ensure that MM receives copies of the publications relating to the Fixed Observatories. Does not think MM could have seen a copy of JH's paper on photographic action when he wrote the notice in Annales de chimie. Comments on this paper and more recent experiments in this field.
