| Title | Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison to Professor [Arthur] Schuster, Secretary of the Royal Society |
| Date | 8 January 1913 |
| Description | 'Re Papers.
Mr Bousfield is getting anxious about his paper. He wants urgently to publish some of it soon. You may remember that the first referee's report upon it (Porter) favourable; the second (Lees) was unfavourable. Can we di anything but wait for a Committee meeting? Dr Lees was in this week and I told him there ought to be a Committee meeting soon. He gave me a second referee for Marchant's paper.
There are several papers now awaiting the Committee, and the recent Armstrong papers are in a state of suspended animation. I think you were misled by out postcard about the length. Neither paper y itself exceeds 12 pages.
Mr Hardy has reported favourably on Prof Young's paper on "The theory of integration" and it will be a great relief to the author's mind if it can be passed for publication. The referee kept it more than a month.' |
