Pointing out some errors in JH's Outlines Astr.
Thanks for his letter. Was pleased to hear about the corrections. Points out another error in JH's figures in JH's Outlines Astr.
Has received his note enclosing G. B. Airy's paper. Regrets any trouble he may have caused. Sends copies of his own paper for measuring heights by the barometer. Took some observations on the tides at Brodick and comments on William Whewell's statements concerning tides.
