TitleReport of Charles Thomas Leycock, Chairman of the Chemical Committee, Royal Society, to the Secretaries of the Royal Society
Date18 April 1921
DescriptionOn the claims for a reward for improvements in the manufacture of the anaesthetic b-Eucaine by King, Mason and Schryver. Ruling out the claims of patent no.101738 as covered by Ullmann, Leycock suggests that for patent no.101738, and taking into account out-of-pocket expenses of £54, a reward of £400 would be adequate. He notes that about 200 pounds of b-Eucaine was produced at the time.
