  <dc:title>Letter from Joseph Larmor, Holywood, County Down, to Charles Vernon Boys</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Larmor trusts that Boys is none the worse for the good things to eat a week ago. The logarithms are interesting but Larmor's mathematical faculty is to take 'difficult ideas for granted, without worrying about proof'. He sympathises regarding Todhunter. If Boys wishes to trace a mind as ingenious as his own, he should look to the Scottish mathematician [John] Napier, from about the year 1500. Boys should take pride in stumbling on his tracks.  </dc:description>
