Minutes of meeting of 11 October 1878 read and confimed
Resolved;
1. In future numbers of Edinburgh Observations printed not to exceed number of Greenwish Observations printed
2. Committee considers it inadvisable to continue publication of the 'Edinburgh Starplace Catalogue and Ephemerides' in the form of Vol XIX
3. Publication of only the Astronomical, Meteorological and Physical Observations actually made at the Edinburgh Observatory and the results thereof would lead to considerable savings. Illustrations to be confined to elucidation of the observations; plates 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 12 of Vol XIV not in this category. |
