Letter from Herbert McLeod, St. Cyr, 21 Grange Gardens, Eastbourne, to [Joseph] Larmor He received the results of the stamping of the Physics slips yesterday [for the Catalogue of Scientific Papers]. He summarises the number of slips in Light, Electricity and Magnetism, and Sound, 54,785, compared to 38,060 in Mathematics. They have had some misfortunes, including Miss Mary Leathy being away due to an outbreak of measles. Marshall Watts is at Southend, 'overcome by the heat'. There are no more slips that can be sent to McLeod. He notes the oppressive heat and the business in Parliament which has made interesting reading; 500 must be 'gnawing their knuckles with disappointment at not getting their peerages'. McLeod and others of the Eastbourne party have had influenza. 12 August 1911
