CHAPTER XXIV.
Heights and Latitudes of the Stations visited in Affghanistan. [{517}]
“The subjoined Table contains the latitudes and the altitudes of the principal stations passed through by the late Dr. Griffith during the Cabul campaign in 1838-40, from his original observations. The altitudes for the latitudes were taken with the sextant and the artificial horizon, and the results throughout are so nearly coincident, that it may be relied on the latitudes herein given are correct to within half a minute in space.
Latitudes, and Elevations above the Sea, of the various localities visited in Affghanistan.
