TitleCopy letter from Ambrose Thomas Stanton, Royal Societies Club, St. James's Street, London, to the Editor, The Lancet, 423 Strand, London
Date28 January 1922
DescriptionNotes the publication of a series of papers on beriberi by Fraser and Stanton in The Lancet during the years 1909-1914. He asks for authorisation to reprint the papers in order to give credit to clinicians and pathologists in the beriberi story, rather than to physiologists. Notes that his and Fraser's work on minute substances in rice predate publications of Funk and Hopkins and that the significance of the observations were appreciated by readers of The Lancet at the time.
