| Title | Letter from Godfrey Harold Hardy, to Alfred Charles Glyn Egerton, regarding a paper 'The summation of infinite harmonic series' by Frederick Soddy |
| Date | 19 August 1941 |
| Description | Sectional Committee: Mathematics
Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Comments on a referee setting parts of the problem in an exam paper. Finds the style unprofessional, but not bad' if a student had brought him the paper, he would advise that it be re-written, and submitted to the Journal of the London Mathematical Society, or the Oxford Quarterly Journal [Quarterly Journal of Mathematics].
Discusses a grant application by the London Mathematical Society, as discussed with Henry Hallett Dale.
