CreatorMcLeod; Herbert (1841-1923); British chemist
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Date23 April 1906
DescriptionHe has his letter to Larmor with Larmor's notes on it. He will send slips on mixed serials to [Albert Charles] Seward and Dallas has looked at them. He has spent part of every day except one of his holidays in taking out numbers of different sciences from the account books, noting what he has to add up; he has tried to borrow a calculating machine, having lent his to Alfred Lodge. He lists the numbers already done [for the Catalogue of Scientific Papers]. He is not sure if the numbers are useful, giving his reasons. He has not heard from Clay and thinks to write to him with the proposed specimen sheet.
