Capitolo 43
sums, Nov. 1. On Sept. 6 and 10 there are Lunar Distances
observed with the Sextant of Rothman and completely he/she worked out; for these self
prepared a skeletal and printed form, I believe the my first. December 13
there are references to books on Geology (Conybeare and Phillips, and
Parkinson) what I was starting to study. July 27, being the day
on that I completed my 21 year, I attentively did nothing.
"Partially another subject occupied my thoughts that, although not (with
you quote to practical science) very wise, it still gave me of the Cambridge
celebrity. In July 1819 I had (as before it mentioned) it drew a plan
to build reflecting telescopes with silvered glass, and it had
shewn it later to Peacock of Mr. I now completed the theory of this
construction correcting the aberrations, spherical as
chromatic. July 13 th 1822, me stretched a paper around him for Mr
Peacock. He approved a lot him, and somehow it communicated him/it to Mr
(after the Mr. John) Herschel. I was later soon introduced to
Herschel to a breakfast with Peacock of Mr: and he approved the scheme
generally. August 5 I drew on a mathematical and complete paper for
the Cambridge Philosophical Society that I submitted to Mr
Peacock. The aberrations, both spherical and chromatic, is here
worked out very well. On Nov. 25 were read to the reunion of the
Philosophical society, and it was printed later them
Operations: this was my first stamped Monograph. In front of this duration
however I had worried about to practically try the scheme. Peacock of Mr had
busy to bear the expense, but I didn't have any occasion to ask to him. Partly
(I think) through Drinkwater, I communicated with a called optician
Bancks, in the Beach that built the optic part. ME
accordingly it tried my telescope, but it would not do. The guilt as me
it didn't have and it doesn't have the smallest doubt, it depends somehow on the
crystallization of the silvering of mercury. It is due to be around this
time that I have been introduced to Mr (after the Mr. James) the South, to a
