| Title | Letter from Balfour Stewart, Kew Observatory to [Edward Sabine] |
| Date | 26 July 1867 |
| Description | Refers to a meeting of the Kew Committee which was cancelled due to the weather. Stewart would like to update Sabine on the ‘progress of things’, therefore sends a letter from Mr [Robert] Ellery and Colonel Walker [not enclosed]. It seems to Stewart there is no error in Captain [James Palladio] Basevi’s ‘determinations’. Refers to a difference in Colonel Walker’s and [Hermann] Schlagintweit’s results. |
