Paul,
Regarding the Hinks paper and follow-on discussion that you excerpted in your 4 Feb 25 post:
In July 2007 I downloaded that 1910 Hinks paper and discussion from JSTOR, along with a later (1926) note from Hinks. I have attached them as three .PDF files, named:
1_Notes on Determination of Position Near the Poles, (A.R. Hinks, March 1910)_CV
2_Notes on Determination of Position Near the Poles: Discussion (March 1910)_CV
3_Second Note on Determination of Position Near the Poles, (A.R. Hinks, July 1926)_CV
(The attachments are of better quality than your linked document, and not encumbered by the remainder of The Geographical Journal in which they were published.)
