Letter from O J [Oliver Joseph] Lodge, Normanton House, Lake, near Salisbury, to [Joseph] Larmor Lodge is amazed that Larmor has detected [Paul] Dirac in [James Clerk] Maxwell, not suspecting that it could be traced back to one of the giants of the nineteenth century. He imagines that [Arthur] Eddington exaggerates when he suggests a breakdown of the law of causality and a loophole for freedom. He congratulates Larmor for the discovery, although the time was not then ripe for seeing a connection with the quantum. 'I daresay I am talking nonsense, but I only read your letter five minutes ago, and so am inclined to bubble over'. 8 March 1930
