Thanks for letter. Will do all in his power to further the cause of the Astronomical Society. Missing parts of Nautical Almanac and R.S.P.T. Would JH look into matter. Unable to send complete set of his Astronomical Yearbook, but can supply some for a suitable sum.
Should have received the Astronomical Yearbook. No news of its receipt or answers to letters of 12 May and 19 June. Observations which JH sent will appear in the 1824 Yearbook. Has not received the Nautical Almanac for 1821/2.
Inquires after a case of Year-books previously dispatched. Cost £14-4-0. No answers to his letters of May, June or August.
Acknowledges JH's receipt of Astronomical Yearbook, also payment for same. Thanks for information of Southern comets.
Thanks for the Nautical Almanac. Still requires R.S.P.T. for 1817. Through Francis Baily he will receive copies of his Yearbook, one for his father and one for the R.S.L.
Will receive 1827 Astronomical Yearbook through Mr. Hunnemann. Would be glad if he could hurry up the Parramatta Observations from K. L. C. Rümker. Various queries regarding publications.
JB was elected associate of Astronomical Society. Asks that Society's annual prize be announced in Jahrbuch. Please insert 'Reclamation' of Francis Baily against Jabbo Oltmanns, relative to the eclipse of [Thales?], into next Ephemeris. Send copies of JB's Ephemeris for T. F. Colby and for Society.
Rules of new Astronomical Society. Offers to propose JB as associate.
