Herschel2008

From:
Reginald Stuart Poole

RS:HS 14.40
Summary:

Being able to conclude only that J. B. Biot was wrong in his conclusion, RP cannot make computation (per JH's request) about heliacal rising himself. Has applied to G. B. Airy to do it. Expresses difficulty in attaining accuracy about any ancient author's recording of a rising.
