Referee's report by Andrew Russell Forsyth, on a paper 'Octonions' by Alex McAulay Agrees with Joseph Larmor that the paper should be published as a single book, rather than in Philosophical Transactions. It is too new in matter and would be out of place in Philosophical Transactions. Wishes the Council to make a grant with the 'special £1000 a year which they receive from government' to assist in it's publication. Subject: Mathematics [Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1895]. 2 March 1896
