| Description | Reminds Mr. [Charles Thomas] Heycock of the paper by [Henry] Briggs, 'The adsorption of gas by charcoal, silica and other substances'. Explains that the referees suggested a condensation to about half of the paper's present length, and that Briggs has since cut it from 21 to 14 pages. Asks Mr. Heycock if they should press for a further reduction or if this will suffice and it can be passed under Standing Order 43. |
