| Title | Letter from James Dewar, 1 Scroope Terrace, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Dewar; Sir James (1842-1923); British chemist and physicist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 16 February 1910 |
| Description | Dewar gives thanks for the copy of the Wilde Lecture, 'a scientific gem'. If Larmor wants to know what they are coming to in science, he should read today's 'Telegraph' where he will find a speech by [William] Ramsay. He discusses the properties of the new carbon sulphide, saying he will 'work the thing out', noting its instability. He wishes that he only had experiments to do and the vigour of body to continue. |
