    Notes: [Auszug] The high scientific position which Prof. Foster holds, as well as the decided manner in which his letter was written, must lead the otherwise unbiassed reader to the conclusion that not only has a satisfactory explanation of the action in question been found and generally adopted, but that this ...

    Notes: [Auszug] I HAVE reason to believe that the “grievous error” with which I charged “John O'Toole” in his reference to the clock is not meant by him to be his own view of the matter at all, but merely a legitimate deduction from the confused and inconsistent language of “the doctors”. Such an erroneous ...
