  <dc:title>Letter from Edward Sabine</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Sabine notes ‘the earliest suggestion of an Antarctic expedition for magnetic researches is contained in a letter’ he wrote to in 1828 to Professor [James] Renwick of Columbia College in New York, and remarks on similar subsequent suggestions made. Discusses ‘the establishment of fixed magnetic observatories at certain stations in the colonies’.</dc:description>
