| Title | Letter from James Walker, 8 Windsor Terrace, Dundee, to [William] Ramsay |
| Creator | Walker; Sir James (1863-1935); British chemist |
| Recipient | Ramsay; Sir William (1852-1916); British physical chemist |
| Date | 6 December 1904 |
| Description | Walker has had a visit from [Bertram Dillon] Steele, troubled about a paper sent to the Royal Society. He explained a few points and Walker thinks his theory is sound, although it may not be the true explanation of his results. Walker can give no opinion since he has not seen the actual papers, but he suggested more attention to clarity of expression. He notes that Ramsay is going to Kandesteg and wishes he could join him. Walker has an extension to his laboratory in working order, and so can separate elementary and advanced students. He also has rooms for physical work and four students doing research. In his own research, he is addling his brain with hydrolysis theory. |
