From IS h. i6f to 15 Z?. ^7^ T. app, I doubted of the End, 
and am confident it did not exceed the 17th Minute. It 
ended overagainft the North Part of the Talus Maotis of 
Mr. Hevelius^ much about the middle of theW eflern or Right- 
hand Limb of the Moon, flie being then very near fetting. 
Capt. Barth, Candler, being then at Tort Royal, in Ja- 
mate a, had much better Fortune, and a ferene Sky from 
the Beginning to the End ; who having ufed due care to be 
affured of his Times, by Altitudes taken with an Inftrument 
of three Foot Radius, was pleafed to fend us the Refult of 
his Obfervation as follows. 
h. / /' 
The Eclipfe began 6 79 10 
Immerfion 8 7 50 
Emerfion 9 11 o 
The End 10 19 40 
Whence the Middle 8 39 27 
And fiippofing the Eclipfe to have ended at Greenwich, 
at \sh. ~ the Difference of Longitude between Tort 
Royal and Greenwich, will be sh. so^', or 5* 6' from 
London, that is, 76 37^ L 
Mr. Kirck being in a more Eafterly Meridian, could fee 
nothing of the Emerfion, but has carefully noted the Time 
of the Beginning and Immerfion, as he obferved them at 
Berlin, viz. the Beginning of the Eclipfe at \%h. s<)^ $ 5 ^^ 
..and the Immerfion at 14 8^ 8/^ Now by comparing feve- 
ral Obfervations made at both Places, we have formerly 
concluded Berlin to be 54 Min. of Time, or \ \\ grad, of 
Longitude more Eafterly than London ; wherefore at Lon- 
don it began at ix h, s’ SS” ^i^d immerged at 13 Z>. 14/ 8^' 
that is, the beginning was later here than at Jamaica s h. 
6 ! 4 fS’\ and the Immerfion later s h. 6 ' i8^^, punctually agree- 
ing with what refulted from my own Obfervation of the End 
as abovefaid ; and fufticiently with what I had long ftnee 
determined from Obfervations fent me from Jamaica by my 
old Aftronomical Friend Mr. Charles Boucher,
