JWL is grateful to WW for his 'hints': 'with respect to the first not having the paper before me I do not recollect sufficient to give an answer, I should have liked to know whether the argument is conclusive to you'. The Council have appointed a committee to consider the printing of some observations the Admiralty have sent. JWL has 'requested Capt. Beaufort [Francis Beaufort] to get from some of the places a specification of the manner in which the time was obtained and of the zero point from which the heights are reckoned'. Could WW tell Mr Lodge that the Library committee will meet on August the 2nd.
