[Responding to JF's 1849-11-23], JH cautiously discusses various considerations bearing on the idea of sending an astronomer and a large reflecting telescope to the Cape.
Agrees that it would be desirable to make further observations at the Cape, but foresees difficulties, especially liaison with the Astronomer Royal at the Cape.
