This expedition was one of those organised by the Joint Per­manent Eclipse Committee of the Royal Society and Royal Astro­nomical Society, funds being provided from a grant made by the Government Grant Committee. The observers are indebted to the Great Indian Peninsular Rail­way Company for the carriage of the instruments at reduced rates between Bombay and Pulgaon, and for a considerable reduction of fares to the observers for this journey.
