Source of text:
RS:HS 6.125
Summary:

Is trying to obtain parts of R.S.P.T. containing the original communication of William Herschel on changes in double stars. Would be glad of JH's assistance. Printer has made mistakes in spite of his proof corrections. Weather most unsuitable for observations due to fog. Is pleased JH is making a synopsis of all the double-star measurements.
