Letter from George Carey Foster, on a paper 'On the production of transient electric currents in iron and steel conductors by twisting them when magnetised, or by magnetising them when twisted' by James Alfred Ewing to the Secretary of the Royal Society Confirms that his initial recommendation to the Philosophical Transactions was a mistake. It 'contains nothing but what is suitable for publication in the Proceedings'. A section of the paper should be omitted. Subject: Physics [Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1883]. 20 June 1882
