Is now finally empowered to order the telescope he inquired about [see JH's 1843-9-2].
Will give lecture on moon in which he will discuss its composition, the craters Kepler and Gassendi, plus generalities.
Sends copy of JH's Cambridge B.A.A.S. address. Printer will send proofs for JH's inspection.
Invites JH and Margaret Brodie Herschel to dinner on 11 Nov.
Perhaps periodic surges in atmospheric waves noticed by WB will repeat. Speaks of 'new climate' for globe. Hopes WB can attend [B.A.A.S.] meeting at Southampton.
