Referee's report by Henry Hallett Dale, on a paper 'On cellular pulsations in the maintenance of the ascent of sap' by Jagadish Chandra Bose Sectional Committee: Botany Not recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. The paper does not contain much of value, and is unlikely to stimulate research. The 'main thesis is based on inferences from fanciful analogies', and inappropriate experiments. The paper is written in ignorance and disregard for previous work. [Not published] Endorsed on verso as received 5 December 1921. [December 1921]
