Reminds JH that the algebraic formulation of the theory of the achromatic telescope eyepiece was formulated by GA.
Is sending a tract on 'Probable Errors.' Further observations on JH's article on telescopes.
Recognizes the validity of GA's claim to the eyepiece theory [see GA's 1861-3-27]; JH did not have space to deal adequately with the subject of telescopes.
