Date: 25 January 1664
Note: Although the header immediately
preceding this entry clearly has the date 25 January in its title, the first
entry carries the anomalous date '7 May' in the margin. We assume that this is
the date when the experiment was actually performed, and that it was
transcribed into the workdiary later as the previous marginal date is from
November and the next is from March. It is thus likely that, as the header
suggests, these entries were recorded in January

Note: The September dates in the entry more
likely refer to the date on which the experiment was performed rather than the
date they were recorded in the workdiary. A September 1663 date does not fit in
with the surrounding entries, which are dated May 1664

Note: The word 'Diff.' and resulting

Date: 25-29 July 1664
Note: Presumably this marginal number should
read '591', with a '5' appended as a first digit as many of the other marginal
numbers have. But as Boyle may have considered it part of entry 591 which
begins on p. 42, he probably did not bother to renumber it. Here we consider it
part of entry 591 because of the common subject matter of hydrostatical
measurements
