  <dc:title>Letter from Balfour Stewart, Kew Observatory to [Edward Sabine]</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Stewart remarks it is ‘doubtful’ Mr [George Gabriel] Stokes will carry on with his pendulum experiments. Discusses Mr [Benjamin] Loewy’s employment and experiments which could ‘employ’ his time. Asks Sabine to suggest a ‘series of experiments’ for which a grant could be applied for. Refers to repeating experiments regarding ‘the coefficient of expansion of dry air’. Suggests comparing thermometers.</dc:description>
