Title | Letter from J A [Joseph Alfred] Hardcastle, The Dial House, Crowthorne, Berkshire, to 'Dear Uncle Willie' [Sir William James Herschel] |
Creator | Hardcastle; Joseph Alfred (1868-1917); British astronomer |
Date | 27 October 1910 |
Description | He gives thanks for the Whitmell. The enclosure should prove interesting and he will pass on anything about the journal. The question about mirrors is Hardcastle's. He is surprised that Dr Dreyer calls the forty-foot telescope a failure, unless he means its whole life. He asks to have the letters back in time for his committee, and a note of what portraits of William Herschel he has. |
