Summary:

Dawson and TH think it would be a good idea to republish William Herschel's papers together with a biographical memoir. Has JH thought of doing this; if not would he allow Dawson to do it? Has not heard if the foreigners engaged on the Berlin maps have relinquished their portions. The Munich instrument is a most vicious instrument.
