JH writes to excuse himself from a meeting the following day at which Charles Babbage's calculating engine will be discussed.
Declines to serve on a committee to assist the Council of the R.S.L. to revise its charter and statutes.
Will not be coming to either meeting [see James Hudson's 1830-12-18], because JH has fully expressed himself previously on the matter of Southern Hemisphere observations, and had already asked to be excused from further association with Glass Committee and any other connection with 'that subject.'
