Letter from Karl Pearson, on a paper 'On the significance of Bravais' formulæ for regression, in the case of skew correlation' by George Udny Yule to George Howard Darwin
Reference number: RR/13/161
Date: 27 December 1896

Description
He has tried to complete some work on skew correlations previously but has not had the time to complete the. Therefore,Yule's discovery is of great value. Having re-read the paper, he thinks that some of the tables can be omitted. He doesn't think much can be gained by lots of compression.
