Date28 February 1894
DescriptionAgrees with the referees regarding the lack of novelty in the paper, and would have presented the paper to the Mineralogical Magazine, however as the paper was a response to another paper already published in the Proceedings by George Henry Frederick Ulrich, the paper had to be submitted there. Suggests the chemical results appear in the Proceedings, and has enclosed an abstract for this purpose. Otherwise, the paper will be submitted to the Mineralogical Society.
