* 'I'he longitudes given in this Itinerary have been obtained by deduction from the daily course and distance, cor- 
rected by the observid latitudes ;. assuming the longitude of Cape Town as 18° 23' 11". They are preferred to the 
results of my lunar observations, for reasons which are explained in another place.
