Summary:
Henry Lawson has nominated EL for the R.S.L. and would be grateful if JH would add his name to the certificate. Has just received an 11' refracting telescope from Lawson. Has doubtless heard of the newly formed British Meteorological Society. S. C. Whitbread is president, and they already have one hundred members. Has had several gifts of books for the Midland Observatory.
