Would support the application for a grant [see JH's 1870-5-12], but would like to see some changes in the way calculations are made.
Refers to several items of correspondence, and then comments on the calculation of Gaussian earth-constants to a higher power than has been done to date.
Comments on WP’s biographical article on CD. Asks him to thank O. F. Peschel for his present of the publication [Das Ausland 2 Apr 1870].
