| Title | Letter Charles Smallwood, Isle Jesus, Canada to Edward Sabine, London |
| Date | 20 October 1860 |
| Description | Sabine sent Smallwood a ‘list of rates of the chronometer’. Smallwood wrote to a member of the Canadian government regarding a grant, but due to the ‘instability’ of things he has been unable to receive a ‘positive promise’. Refers to last year’s grant being ‘nearly exhausted’, payment of the chronometer and the arrival of the instruments soon. Discusses the building of the observatory in [Canada]. |
