*,* The Editor has been requested by Mr. Adams.to msert 
the following note : 
Stonehouse, March 13, 1819. 
I have this day been informed by a friend, that my method » 
“ for clearing the Lunar Distance,” published in your journal for 
this month, is essentially the same as one given by Captain ~ 
Robert Heath in the “Supplement to the Royal Astronomer,” — 
published in 1768; and I, therefore, hasten to acquaint you of 
the circumstance, and to beg the favour of your inserting this 
in your Annals for next April. I have never'seen the work 
entitled the “‘ Royal Astronomer,” nor heard, either directly or 
indirectly, of Capt. Heath’s method. The publication of this 
note will, I hope, remove any idea of my having borrowed the — 
principle. 
ERRATUM in the same Paper. 
In No. LXXV, p. 191, line 23, for 54° 43! 20" read 58° 43! 20”.
