  <dc:title>Copy of draft letter, from Sir John Herschel to Charles Pritchard, dated at Collingwood</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Copy of draft letter, copied as part of the correspondence project led by Colonel John Herschel FRS following the death of his father.
Herschel is busy correcting first proofs of pages on double stars. Thanks for binding Herschel's star [allineations?]. Pritchard's suggestion [see Pritchard's 1867-3-27] to Herschel's son Alexander, to collect and edit William Herschel's papers, entails too much work for one editor. Herschel dreads thought of such work. Doubts Charles Pritchard's claim that William Herschel observed fixed star in Corona.</dc:description>
