Sends a list of additional stars to be measured for JH to use as standards.
Gives measurements for the nucleus noted in his letter of 26 Jan. Regrets the delay of the last list of stars. Wind was tremendous last evening. Feared for the safety of the dome. Finds there is a quantity of sand in the box chronometer.
