The small details of running the town, dealing with offenders, and the collection of taxes. Reverend Thomas Rackett was the vicar of Spettisbury in Dorset, and noted in his day as an antiquary and naturalist. He was Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, the Royal Society and the Linnean Society, and the pursuit of these interests frequently took him away from his parish. Eventually, after some parishioners became Roman Catholics, he was charged with neglecting his duties. The case became a national scandal, although the charges were subsequently dropped. Rackett's correspondence covers his defence of the charges, his many interests and more besides. This volume contains letters to and from Rackett and his friends and family.

Liveing and Dewar published many papers between 1877 and 1904, attempting to correlate line and bands spectra with atomic and molecular states."They noted the contrast between single spectral lines, multiplets, and bands, and they attempted to identify the emitting agents for single, multiplet, and band spectra. They classified great, intermediate, and weak intensities with the spectroscopic series as principal, diffuse, and sharp, respectively. Their studies included the differences between the arc, spark, and flame spectra of metals" the emission spectra of gaseous explosions and of the rare gases" and the effect of temperature and concentration on the absorption spectra of rare-earth salts in solution."(DSB).
