Referee's report by Douglas Rayner Hartree, on a paper 'On the calculation of surface tension from measurements of pendant drops' by S Fordham Sectional committee: Physics Is unsure whether to recommend for publication in Proceedings. The extent of the paper is slight and its style is 'rather naive'. There are a number of modifications that should be made. If a referee who is familiar with the use of results regards it of sufficient importance to be published, he will approve publication. [Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 1948]. Date received not given. 1947
