Abstract
I AM happy to hear that Prof. Hergesell returned to Berlin in time to read his paper. My mistake is due to hearing it officially announced in the morning that it was feared he could not return in time, and to the report in a Berlin newspaper that he had not returned. It was of course impossible for me to attend all the meetings, and in summarising so vast a programme as that of the Seventh International Congress, some mistakes are sure to be made. It is almost unnecessary to add that no aspersion on Prof. Hergesell was intended, the completion of an unexpectedly prolonged experiment is worth more to science than the reading of many papers.
