TESTIMONIALS IN FAVOUR OF
SAX B Y'S PATENT SPIIEREO GRAPH.
40LO LOCAL MARINE BOARD, 71, CORNHILL, LONDON,
- 20th August, 1857.
Sia,—This Board, at their Meeting to-day, and in the presence of
Mr. Boulter J. Bell their examiner in navigation, and Captain J.
Domett, secretary, and one of the examiners in seamanship, had
much pleasure in witnessing the quickness and correctness with
which, by your Sphereograph, you got a great circle course, and
the distances on it, and ascertained the latitude at sea, the varia-
tion by amplitudes and azimuths, the time at sea, and found the
true distance between the moon and the suit, or a star, for obtaining
the longitude. The Board are of opinion that your tables will be
found of great practical service at sea, and recommend them to the
favourable consideration of nautical men.— I am. sir, your most
obedient servant, D. DUNBAR, Chairman.
S. M. SAXBY, Esq.

GENTLEMEN, I beg to inform you that the Sphereograph (No. 3)
which I purchased from you in December last, has the advantage
of enabling a captain to navigate his vessel simply and correctly.
When any celestial object is visible, the position of the ship can be
ascertained, and either latitude or apparent time discovered. Like-
wise it enables him to adjust his compasses in a very quick and
effective manner.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
ISAAC MIDDLETON,
Steam-ship "Saladin," of Liverpool.
