Copy letter, from Sir John Herschel to James South Contemporary copy in sender's hand, signed by sender. Royal Society [of London] Council will meet 17 Nov. to discuss awarding its Copley medal; hence James South's paper, to be presented to Royal Society [of London] later that day, cannot be considered for the award. Other matters have prevented John Frederick William Herschel from preparing annotations of James South's latest paper on double stars. 11 November 1825
