Gaskell.s letter starts," I have just seen a paper read by you to the Oxford Scientific Club concerning my Liverpool address, and as I think the cause of scientific truth is best furthered by free discussion between those who hold opposite views,I venture to write to you." Two long letters, dated 1897, each 12 pages follow.
