Herschel11485

From:
John William Lubbock
To:
Sir John Herschel
Date:
[11 September 1861]
Source of text:
RS:HS 11.398
Summary:

Has been looking at JH's treatise on meteorology, especially the part relating to the barometrical formula. It seems that JH missed JL's paper on refraction published in Transactions of the Astronomical Society, and is therefore not aware of the true nature of P. S. Laplace's atmosphere; comments on this.

Of course JH is right; regrets he gave him so much trouble. Hopes his own construction of P. S. Laplace's atmosphere is correct. Hopes JH's daughter had a prosperous journey.

Herschel11489

From:
John William Lubbock
To:
Sir John Herschel
Date:
[12 July 1862]
Source of text:
RS:HS 11.402
Summary:

JH's conjectures are natural but Augustus De Morgan had nothing to do with JL's Treatise on Probability. JL wrote it in conjunction with J. E. Drinkwater Bethune, although the title page does not show the names of the authors. Understands what JH means about the moon but cannot see what will be gained. Sorry to hear of JH's mishap.
