Introduces [Dionysius] Lardner, who is a mathematician. Asks how [John] Brinkley's collimators succeeded.
Congratulates TR on his volume of astronomical observations. Skeptical about alleged changes in Orion nebula. Feels better telescopes and drawings would be needed to confirm this. Discusses own double star observations.
