End 
Our Obfervations were made with an Heliofcope, 
or Inftrument confifting of a Telefcope and Box with 
a Digit Scheme at the End of it. The Telefcope 
was 6 Feet, the Box two Feet in length, and the 
Sun’s Image on the Scheme was 6 Inches and 8 Tenths 
in Diameter. The Clock was rectified on the Day 
of the Eclipfe, and proved to need no Correction for 
feveral Days afterwards, by Obfervations of the Sun 
on the Meridian. The Sun’s Tranfit was taken by 
the Paffage of its Rays through a Hole made in a Brafs 
Plate, the Center of which Hole was at 6 Feet and
