WHILE thanking you and your reviewer for your very courteous and appreciative notice of the ``Old and New Astronomy,'' I should like to be permitted to point out that the chapter on the sun's surroundings was printed and was in the hands of the public before my connection with the work commenced. Your reviewer suggests that I ought to have corrected certain statements in this earlier part of the volume, but I felt that it was sufficient to mention in the preface that I did not agree with all Mr. Proctor's conclusions, and it must be obvious that it would neither have been an easy nor a gracious task to have attempted in the latter part of a book to criticise the statements and theories of the deceased author of the earlier chapters.
