| Description | Although there has been no official communication from the Home Office on the subject of the investigation on [Glassworkers'] cataract, the Royal Society has reason to believe that that difficulty will be overcome, and after some discussion with the Chairman of the Committee, he and Sir William de Wiveleslie Abney, thinks it is justified to not delay the enquiry on this account.
Harrison proposes that the necessary letter be sent to Messrs Pilkington as soon as possible, and Abney has asked Parsons to get one of the selected glassworkers up to town for investigation, and let him come to Abney for a test of his colour vision. |
