Summary:

Heard from George Bancroft that he was forwarding JH's book on the Southern Nebulae. Has not received it yet so presumes it must have been lost in transit. Sends some of his own astronomical papers for JH. Has made observations of Halley's Comet; gives details as he believes they are from a period for which JH lacks information.
