  <dc:title>Letter, from William Radcliffe Birt to Sir John Herschel, dated at Bethnal Green</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Autograph letter signed by sender. Is concerned to hear that L. A. J. Quetelet's system of observations is in danger of being broken up. Requires funds from the B.A.A.S. to publish his observations. Meteorological Society not likely to support his aims. Will consult Edward Sabine.</dc:description>
