Suggests time and place for [committee] meeting. Good report from observatory in British Guiana. Problems in establishing observatories in colonies. Changes occurring at Toronto. Time is not right to propose turning observatories over to colonial governments.
Informs WW when JH and wife will arrive at Trinity Lodge for B.A.A.S. meeting, before which JH proposes a meeting of the magnetic committee.
The paper for the prize essay has been withdrawn. Tring Agricultural Association has published the results of Mr. Forster's experiments, which so far have been very successful. Was grateful for his poetry. Has been ill as well as JH. Hopes he is improving.
