Dayman to Gutch Back Dayman, Joseph Lieutenant.1f Dean, Edward, of Macclesfield. 1 tidal letter from. de Morgan, Augustus (1806-1871), mathematician, was born at Madura, in the Madras presidency. De Morgan was sent to various schools. He had a gift for drawing caricatures, and read algebra ‘like a novel.’ He pricked out equations on the school-pew, some of which remained after his death, instead of listening to the sermon. In February 1823 he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, as a ‘bye-term man.’ He made many friends at college, including his teachers, Whewell and Peacock. He belonged to a musical society called the ‘Camus’ (i.e. Cambridge Amateur Musical Union Society), and was a skilful flute-player. After some thoughts of medicine he resolved to go to the bar, and entered Lincoln's Inn. The university of London, which afterwards became University College, was just being started. De Morgan found law unpalatable, and on 23 Feb. 1828 was unanimously elected the first professor of mathematics, although the youngest applicant, on the strength of very high testimonials from Peacock, Airy, and other Cambridge authorities. He gave his introductory lecture, ‘On the Study of Mathematics,’ 5 Nov. 1828. From the first De Morgan was a most energetic worker. In May 1828 he was elected a fellow of the Astronomical Society, and in 1830 was placed on the council. He became a member of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, founded by Brougham and others in 1826. He became a member of the committee in 1843. The society was dissolved in 1846. In the vacation of 1837 De Morgan married Sophia Elizabeth Frend, and settled at 69 Gower Street. His lectures at University College attracted many men, afterwards distinguished. He had the power of clear exposition. He never became a fellow of the Royal Society, and held that it was too much open to social influences to be thoroughly efficient as a working institution. His dislike to honorary titles led him to refuse the offer of the LL.D. degree from Edinburgh. For many years he did his best to promote the adoption of a decimal coinage.

@import url(../rmets.css); A brief history On 3 April 1850, ten gentlemen assembled in the library of Hartwell House, near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. According to the minutes of the meeting, they gathered "to form a society the objects of which should be the advancement and extension of meteorological science by determining the laws of climate and of meteorological phenomena in general". They called the society the British Meteorological Society and appointed as its president Samuel Charles Whitbread , a grandson of the founder of the famous brewing firm. The society they formed still exists and flourishes. It became The Meteorological Society in 1866, when it was incorporated by Royal Charter, and the Royal Meteorological Society in 1883, when Her Majesty Queen Victoria granted the privilege of adding 'Royal' to the title. Besides Whitbread, those present at the meeting on 3 April 1850 were Dr John Lee , the owner of Hartwell House, the Reverend Samuel King of Latimer, near Chesham, the Reverend Joseph Bancroft Reade of Stone Vicarage, near Aylesbury, the

T HEY T OLD T HE S TORY Over the century after the discovery, all five of the main authors who told the story between 1852 and 1947 were at some stage RAS presidents: Glaisher, Turner, Sampson, Smart and Spencer-Jones . Adams had twice been president. Naturally, they were all cantabs, all but one being from Trinity or John's College ( see:" A Cantab. clique?" 1852 History of Physical Astronomy, Ch.12 by Robert Grant p124-164, Appendix 603-617. (35 pages). Glaisher studied at Trinity college, Cambridge, was on the Greenwich staff from the 1830s to the 1870s, attained eminence in astronomy and mathematics, knew both Airy and Adams, and was offered but declined the post of Astronomer Royal after Airy. He had originally been an assistant to Airy in Cambridge. RAS President 1886-8 and 1901-3. 1904 Astronomical Discovery Herbert Turner. Turner was at Trinity College, Cambridge.

78. Neptune's Discovery: The British Case For Co-Prediction, By Nick Kollerstrom Airy being out of the country, it fell to james glaisher a senior RGO worker towrite an announcement, and he wrote to The Illustrated London News on http://www.ucl.ac.uk/sts/nk/neptune/announce.htm

A NNOUNCING T HE D ISCOVERY He had been searching for the past two months in this space, he explained. This newspaper was published in Cambridge on the 3rd, so either a copy was rushed to Greenwich that day, or Glaisher met Challis to discuss the matter. In June, Leverrier had published his first prediction, using a circular orbit, citing 325 degrees as his prediction. Then in July Adams constructed a guide for Challis to use for his sky-search, which essentially took that position, at the epoch specified by Leverrier, and converted it into RA and Dec co-ordinates for telescope use ( see "Adams’ July Ephemeris" ). The person doing the sky-search here appears rather vague about why he was doing it, or where he was supposed to be looking.
