Riccardi, I, 182. << John Dollond was apparently the first to try to correct secondary spectrum by the introduction of a third lens in his object-glasses, but he did not publish his result. R. J. Boscovich, a Jesuit professor at the University of Padua, entertained simila ideas and devised an instrument which he called the vitrometrum for investigating residual dispersion. >> (King, History of the telescope, p. 158).
