Book Description
Excerpt from The Geographical Journal, Vol. 13: Including the Proceedings of the Royal Geographical Society; January to June, 1899 If different times are used in various parts of your country, I trust that you will be able to give information relating to the same.

If it is mean time, state the meridian; the observatory, or the place to which this refers; and also, as a check against any misunderstanding, please state distinctly the equivalent of December 1, 9 e.m.
