Seeks state of the nebula catalogue so an accurate estimate of the remaining costs may be made [see GA's 1862-8-1].
On preparing convenient small tables to be carried with one; comments on concept formation.
JH's catalog of nebulae, reduced to 1880 as originally planned, is nearly complete and consumed all of £20 granted by R.S.L. Seeks £16 more to expand catalog and reduce data to 1860, as recommended by G. B. Airy.
Needs to know soon if R.S.L. will approve grant to expand JH's catalog of nebulae. Otherwise G. B. Airy will dismiss man employed to do those computations. [JH annotation: Sent similar letter to G. G. Stokes on same date.]
Expects R.S.L. to provide additional money, but JH will finish work himself rather than go over the amount granted [see GA's 1862-8-12].
