Summary:
Many thanks for the Hindoo myth. May attempt to put it in verse when he can spare the time from star gazing and computing. The South American Indians imagine their ancestors are hunting among the constellations. Is glad James Grahame called. Sorry to hear a poor account of Captain Kater's health.
