Returns Mary Somerville's note and the papers. Does not feel competent to give his opinion on the papers as a whole as there are parts outside his field of study. Comments on some of the points raised, and on the whole he disagrees with the conclusions of the papers.
Has kept Mary Somerville's papers a little longer. If these papers are to be published they would require considerable revision.
A note to accompany the forwarding of a communication to GA.
Has no changes to make in JH's Admiralty Manual.
