TitleLetter from Herbert McLeod, the Royal Society, Burlington House, London, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorMcLeod; Herbert (1841-1923); British chemist
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Date16 July 1913
DescriptionHe had a note from Morley to see him yesterday evening, but before going McLeod saw [Benjamin] Daydon Jackson, the referee for the International Catalogue. He said that [Henri Ernest] Baillon's papers were all right and he would not have rejected them. Morley confirmed this. The only way to resolve the matter would be for the Committee to appoint a referee to look through the slips and reserve those to be rejected, which would be expensive. He concludes by admitting he exaggerated the number of [Marcellin] Bertholet's papers, which were not entries but slips.
