Estimates seven weeks and £10 to compute JH's nebulae data. Suggests JH use new 'Skeleton Form.'
[Responding to JH's 1862-1-23], states that R.A.S. finances not sufficient to publish JH's 'Catalogue of Nebulae,' but R.S.L. is 'rolling in wealth.' Work could be done at [Greenwich Observatory], where GA is already printing 'Skeleton Forms for Precessions.' Forwarded R.S.L. certificate for [E. J.] Lowe to W. H. Smyth.
Not surprised that actual costs [of publishing JH's catalogue of nebulae] departed from estimates. Reports vote by [R.S.L.] committee. Does not believe publication will be expensive.
Has sent an R.S.L. membership application certificate for GA to sign and send on.
Is preparing a list of nebulae and their positions; does GA think anyone would print them?
Suggests preparing an estimate of the cost of preparing and printing a nebula catalogue so JH can approach the R.S.L. [see GA's 1862-1-24].
