Publications Of The United States Naval Observatory 1903 Vol 3 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Publications of the United States Naval Observatory, 1903, Vol. 3 It has been the duty of the Committee on Editing and Printing to select and arrange the material contained in Volume III. The reduction of the observations, the preparation of the printer's copy, and the proof reading, with the exceptions noted in the Introduction to Part V, have been done in the Computing Division under the direction of Professor Eichelberger, who has consulted freely with the observers in charge of the various pieces of work. During the absence of the Sumatra eclipse expedition, February to July, 1901, Assistant Astronomer King was in charge of the Computing Division. The first type proof has been read from the original records. All proofs beyond the first have been read only to assure the insertion of the corrections desired, except that in the plate proof the final results have been read entire.
