The abundance of Fe relative to H is obtained by using resonantly scattered intensities of lambda 284 of Fe XV that were measured with OSO-7 and resonantly scattered intensities of L-alpha of H I that were obtained by Gabriel (1971). Because of possible differences in electron densities along lines of sight for these non-simultaneous measurements and in relative calibrations, results are rather uncertain but still indicate that the average Fe abundance relative to H in the corona appears to be at least as large as a recent photospheric abundance. Some limitations in using this method for obtaining abundances are examined for future experiments with simultaneous measurements and well calibrated detectors.
