TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison to Professor F [Francis] W [Wall] Oliver, Fellow of the Royal Society
Date7 December 1908
DescriptionDr Larmor has apparently forgotten that the first report on the paper by Baly and others on "Electrical forces of mitosis" was by Professor Farmer and was definitely adverse, Harrison encloses an extract of the report. The other referee's opinion is substantially to the same effect and definitely adverse to publication. Larmor has written to the communicator suggesting that a suitable abstract should be furnished for publication.
