| Title | Letter from [Alan Archibald Campbell] Swinton, to Edgcumbe |
| Creator | Swinton; Alan Archibald Campbell (1863-1930); British electrical engineer |
| Date | 10 March 1929 |
| Description | Acknowledges receipt of a previous letter, astonished at Edgcumbe's remarks on the last occasion they met, when he broached him on the question of a reply to Swinburn and Fleming. Comments he has had to tone down his view on numerous occasions to suit other people's views. Details the circumstances and context of Swinburn's disparaging of Lane Fox's work and opines that it would be better to leave the draft of the paper as it is, as really and fairly meeting the justice of the situation, which has largely been prejudiced by Swinburne himself. |
