Summary:
Has sent off paper to the Royal Society
and begun work on a new problem which he feels contains the meaning of Bode’s Law, concerning the mean distances of the planets from the sun. There are mathematical difficulties, however, which he may be unable to surmount.
Will get to work on the pendulum next week.
