WW showed great foresight in sending AS the screw: 'He [Edward Troughton] must see and make me some others which will do the business completely'. AS gives news and suggestions concerning the parts made and under construction for the new Cambridge Observatory. He 'gave Troughton [Edward Troughton] my Woodhouse ['Physical Astronomy', 1818] and I was going to beg you to send me another but it need not as I shall probably soon be with you. I think our matters are coming to a close'.
