40 | Dec 26 1905 | According to Mr. Gerrish it was this date that the Dec. Axis was fixed. The Telescope had turned very hard in Dec. & the tube was jacked up to releave the pressure. Later it was observed then the lines of spectra were very oblique. The pole adjust plate C 16289 showed that the polar axis was very much disturbed. |
