I hope fome of Mr. Wright’s obfervations will be 
made on the fame time with mine, that I may be able 
to fettle immediately the longitude of the If] and of 
Anticofti, and the entrance of the river of St. Law- 
rence. But to determine with exadtnefs the longi- 
tudes hitherto taken, it will be neceffary to deliver a 
copy of this paper to fome members of the Royal So- 
ciety, that they may be compared with correfponding 
obfervations, made in England. 
By order of the Surveyor General.
