Second referee's report by William Pole, on a paper 'On the Hindoo [Hindu] division of the octave, with some additions to the theory of the higher orders' by Robert Holford Macdowall Bosanquet
Reference number: RR/8/6
Date: 14 May 1877

Description
Suggests the author modify his paper to include the references to the book by François-Joseph Fétis 'Histoire Generale de la Musique Volume II' of 1869, and to avoid any addition of new material. Would rather the paper be shortened rather than lengthened.
Subject: Mathematics, Music
[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London', 1877]
