  <dc:title>Letter, from Thomas Henderson to Sir John Herschel, dated at Edinburgh</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Autograph letter signed by sender. Received his February letter and is pleased to hear that things are progressing. No one has seen Halley's Comet yet. His work on the reduction of the Cape observations is proceeding slowly. Had no idea he gave such a poor impression of the Cape climate. David Brewster and J. D. Forbes have not visited Edinburgh recently.</dc:description>
