| Date | 25 May 1914 |

Not recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Considers the paper pretentious, 'as though the writer had formed a much exaggerated idea of the importance of his communication and was anxious to communicate that feelings of importance to his readers'.
