Sir Richard Owen
To:
Sir John Herschel
Date:
[18 December 1858]
Source of text:
TxU:H/M-0404; Reel 1087
Summary:

[Marked 'Private.'] Treasury replied unfavorably to request for extension of magnetic observations. C. E. Trevelyan suggests that joint letter from JH and presidents of R.S.L. and B.A.A.S. proposing only one observer (no observatory) at Peking would be acceptable, if estimated cost is included. No other locations will be approved. This concession was made possible by influence of Prince Albert.

Will welcome CD’s work [Origin] with a "close & continuous perusal".
