Abstract
WITH reference to Prof. Copeland's letter in your last issue, I must say that I am inclined to believe that Austria Sound will eventually be found to be more or less as Payer originally laid it down. I am inclined to this belief because it seems to me almost impossible that the map of the very track he trod should show any great error. Of course, the longitude laid down may well be erroneous—considering the circumstances—and we may expect rectification of this.
