Gov. Robinson vouches for the correctness of these tables by 
inserting them in his reports for the colonial Blue Books. 
The weather was so charming when we were at Nassau in 1879, 
the thermometer at 7 a. M., week after week, marking sub- 
stantially the same temperature, with no storms, and only an 
occasional shower, that Capt. Fox believed that we were favored 
with weather exceptionally good, and through the kindness of 
the librarian of the Nassau public library, he obtained from the 
Nassau military observatory the following table, showing the 
highest and lowest temperature and the rainfall at the end of 
every week, for six months, from November to April, both in- 
clusive, for the years 1878 and 1879.
