Second letter from J S Lombard, to George Gabriel Stokes, regarding a paper 'Experimental researches on the temperature of the head' by J S Lombard

Reference number: RR/8/122

Date: 26 July 1878

Description

Has been in contact with Henry Charlton Bastian, and has decided to await the decision of the Committee. If the decision is made not to publish, the author should, by that time, have a 'pretty complete copy of the article' prepared. Has found that his notes are much more complete than expected. Examining the originals held by the Royal Society should be enough to finish a complete copy of the paper for Charles-Édouard Brown-Séquard. Gives thanks for the offer of a loan of the manuscript.
