Dear Sir,—The night before last was a clear night, and I got the 6-1/2 inch out, and though the air was not good when using a 3-1/4 inch refractor, I was much pleased with the performance of the mirror.
Mr. W. came up about eleven o’clock and stayed till one; we got it on Saturn, and although rather low it was really a fine sight—Mr. W. was much pleased.
The moon being near to full we could not do much with faint points of light.
Yours sincerely,
(Signed.)
Mr. G. Calver.
