Referee's report by William Bowman, on a paper 'An account of two cases, in which ovules, or their remains, were discovered in the fallopian tubes of unimpregnated women who had died during the period of menstruation' by H Letheby
Reference number: RR/2/136
Date: 23 August 1851
Description
Recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Refers to work of Theodor Ludwig Wilhelm von Bischoff. Has some doubt as to whether the medical aspect of the paper makes it unsuited for publication in the Philosophical Transactions. Suggests the paper can be abbreviated of certain parts, and all but the first conclusion omitted.
