TitleLetter from James Dewar, Royal Institution of Great Britain, London, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorDewar; Sir James (1842-1923); British chemist and physicist
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Date22 January 1907
DescriptionDewar did not ask about the names of persons whom Larmor may have consulted, but rather he wanted a 'manly response' to his letter of 16 January. In that, he expressly stated that he did not consent to Larmor using the letters for the use of Council or Committee, considering it a breach of honour for any side to bring it before those bodies. He asks again if Larmor accepts these conditions.
