Summary:

Has supplied Richard Sheepshanks with revisions of J. J. L. Lalande's Catalogue of Those Stars in the Histoire céleste française.... Because Sheepshanks previously accused WS of misplacing the proofs of JH's preface to N. L. Lacaille's Catalogue of 9766 Stars in the Southern Hemisphere (which later were found to be where WS had asserted), WS quips that he 'returned every scrap of paper' to Sheepshanks.
