Is making a case for JH's priority claims with regard to the means of determining double star orbits, in conflict with Yvon Villarceau.
Extended comments about some of GA's statements in GA's abstract of Yvon Villarceau's papers on double stars [see GA's 1849-4-11].
JH's wife, Margaret, is writing to Mrs. Dawes and will ask about the telescope [see GA's 1849-10-23].
