Description

Sectional Committee: Mathematics

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Considers the paper 'didactic rather than a record of new results', yet contains new information. Suggests some additions and clarifications for the text. 'Further I would suggests that the phrase "a distinguished mathematician of the older school" is one which may or may not be accepted as a compliment by whoever it refers to'.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London', 1913]

Endorsed on verso as received 7 January 1913.
