| Date | 29 October 1913 |
| Description | Asks William Ramsay for advice on a vacuum tube he wants made, particularly, on how best to get a stream of cathode rays outside a Crookes tube to be used on patients. Notes that he had a tube made to experiment with, however, it was imperfect and he is unsure how to be sure any rays got through the thin glass. Provides a sketch of what he envisions the tube to look and perform like. |
