Summary:

Reduction of JH's catalog of nebulae will not be completed before Christmas. HA's success in discovering nebulae and novae. Has compared positions of all nebulae observed by both JH and William Herschel; very few show evidence of shift. Thanks for offering HA's observations, but space in catalog is too limited.
