Describes progress in illustration of fossil cirripede specimens. Thanks for answers to questions. Comments on hermaphroditism. Describes his discovery of parasitic male cirripedes.
Encloses a letter from J. D. Hooker [see 1257], thinking that WJH would like to see it.
Mentions cirrus cloud formations foreshadowing aurora. Is unable to attend R.S.L. committee meetings and concerned that 'outlying' members be able to relay opinions through letters.
Henry Lawson has nominated EL for the R.S.L. and would be grateful if JH would add his name to the certificate. Has just received an 11' refracting telescope from Lawson. Has doubtless heard of the newly formed British Meteorological Society. S. C. Whitbread is president, and they already have one hundred members. Has had several gifts of books for the Midland Observatory.
Proposes date for next and perhaps final R.S.L. government grant committee meeting. Wishes there were more funding. Predicts results of meeting. Updates on ES's health.
Urges dispatch on illustrations [for Fossil Cirripedia]; CD’s MS has been ready for some time and all depends on JdeCS. Suggests a way to hasten progress.
Discusses his account.
Sending a note from M. R. Gubbins of the Bengal Civil Service, which may be of interest to JH.
