| Description | 'Dear Madam,
With reference to your paper on the Gastric tubules which we forwarded you last week, Dr Bradford wishes us to let you know that he will be very glad if you will do your best to reduce its length to as nearly as possible 30 pages of the printed Proceedings [of the Royal Society], that being the limit at which it is desired Proceedings paper should as far as possible be kept. As originally sent in the paper was estimated to be about 50 pages in length.
If the paper could be returned by Thursday or Friday it might be possible to put it in hand before the holidays and so save some time in publication.' |
