The final positions in longitude of Yarkand and other important places have been determined as follows :--

The true longitude of KASHGHAR (Yangi-Shahr) is ...   76° 6' 47"

The difference of longitude between Kashghar and

Yangi-Hissar as determined by Pandit Kishen Sing's pacing, corrected from latitude observations, is—On

outward journey   • ..

  • On return journey   ...   ...

Giving for longitude of Yangi-Hissar

The difference of longitude between Yangi-Hissar and Yarkand, determined in the same manner—

By outward journey is   ...   ...

By return journey

On the outward journey the survey was carried along the direct road, about 75 miles in length, and over a perfectly level country, whereas on the return journey the road followed a circuitous line of 180 miles, over one snowy pass and very rough ground. The first

value is therefore accepted in preference, viz.   ...

The mean result obtained chronometrically is adopted for the final position. The wonderfully accordant results at Kila Panjah, although highly satisfactory, must perhaps to a certain extent be regarded as fortuitous, but the admirable rates obtained for the watch employed in the chronometric determinations, a silver lever watch by Brock of London specially made for explorations, are worth recording* and ought to give results in the accuracy of which great confidence may be placed.
