Original logbook of the Albatross covering station numbers 2750 to 2816, 1092 to 1124, recorded 27 November 1887 to 14 April 1888. Data recorded include station number (no.), date, machine, turns, correction, depth, shot or lead, bottom, bottom temperature, number of thermometer, correction, corrected temperature, air temperature, surface temperature, drift, trawl or dredge, sounding wire readings, dredge rope readings, serial temperatures, and general remarks. Remarks sometimes record types of specimens caught (e.g. fish, mollusks, gastropods, crustaceans) and how common or abundant the are. Localities are not listed in this volume, but they were possibly traveling in the Bahamas in the earlier part of 1886 (based on the history of the ship's activities).
