Makes suggestion on freeing the Leviathan from its trapped position.
Pleased that WS included François Arago's lectures in his compilation. Believes the Italian edition could have been better edited. Remarks on the Leviathan problem.
Thanks WS for 'kind expressions on my behalf.' Believes these may be the last words he may write.
