  <dc:title>Note on tidal effect, by Sir John Frederick William Herschel</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Note in Herschel's hand to measure tidal effect in cubic feet, related to "tons of coal per diem", likely calculating access restriction to a coastal coal mine due to tide. Top corner note in pencil relates to [William Stanley Jevons], potentially The Coal Question (1865), to whom corrections should be sent.
