Letter from John Phillips, York to Edward Sabine, Tortington, Arundel Refers to ‘the comparable observations’ of ‘dip and intensity in England under [Humphrey] Lloyd’s excellent direction’. Phillips discusses combining his ‘readings’ with others. Refers to a report presented at a meeting, ‘the utility of the [British] Association’, English charts of all British islands, and ‘progress of the magnetical scheme in Europe’. Phillips intends to give a paper on hourly variations and the dip at Liverpool. Phillip assures Sabine he ‘will gladly execute’ Sabine’s ‘commission at Liverpool’. 4 August 1837
