  <dc:title>Letter from Joseph Larmor, St John's College, Cambridge, to Charles Vernon Boys, 27 The Grove, Boltons, London</dc:title>
  <dc:description>The College has asked Larmor to find advice on the merits of Fellowship dissertations by F Horton [Frank Horton, later FRS (1878-1957)]. There is no doubt about his experimental skill, but he presents no theoretical evidence. Larmor asks if this is sufficient for a Fellowship of six years and notes that Horton has been in contact with Boys on the subject of experiments with quartz fibres.   </dc:description>
