  <dc:title>Letter from J F W [John Frederick William] Herschel, Collingwood, to General [Edward] Sabine, [President of the Royal Society]</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Regarding Herschel's reduction of a general catalogue of nebulae to 1880, for which the Society had granted him £20. Following communication with the Astronomer Royal [George Biddell Airy], Herschel proposes a slightly broader project and requests an additional grant of approximately £16 for a reduction to 1860.</dc:description>
