Comments on the unsatisfactory [to JH] resolution regarding the awarding of the annual R.A.S. medal.
Continuing to try to resolve the medal problem [see GA's 1847-2-9].
Seeks GA's opinion about including a specific passage in F. W. Bessel's obituary notice for the R.A.S. Also inquires about the printing of the star catalogues of N. L. Lacaille and J. J. L. Lalande.
Agrees with GA [see GA's 1847-6-11] about paying up accounts.
About observing stars with the transit circle, and timing the annulus [of an eclipse?].
Was too cloudy to observe the eclipse; very worried about the health of Thomas Maclear.
Asks GA for details about the scientific support provided by Hugh Percy; also asks about the availability of star charts on the Berlin Academy scheme.
