| Title | Letter from Humphrey Lloyd, Trinity College, Dublin to Edward Sabine |
| Date | 28 March 1857 |
| Description | Lloyd suggests corrections to his method [for observing the force], and notes changes to m. Lloyd provides a formula representing the deflection, the weight, its distance from the centre, and inclination produced by it, and a constant. The weight should not be so large as to not allow for the change of force in the magnet, and the needle should be permanently out of balance. Discussion on a compete observation of intensity. |
