Summary:

Loading scientific instruments aboard ship [Anshimy?] tomorrow prevents JB from visiting JH before departure. Missed annual R.A.S. meeting. Book of 'Observations' is nearly finished. Told [J. C.] Melvill that instruments in India were not adequate for observations of astronomical refractions.
