  <dc:title>Letter, from Thomas Maclear to Sir John Herschel, dated at Royal Observatory, Cape of Good Hope</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Autograph letter signed by sender. Barometer is swinging without encountering any accident. Believes there is to be a new clergyman at Rondebosch, the old Observatory housekeeper, John Fry, shortly to land from England. Hopes he is more adept at sermons than he was arranging the catalogue of instruments.</dc:description>
