Abstract
IN a letter to NATURE (June 27, p. 979) Prof. J. B. Gatenby objects to certain comments upon his work made recently by Mr. L. A. Harvey in a paper on yolk-formation in the earthworm (Q.J.M.S. 69, p. 291). Mr Harvey is a student working in this department and it is on his behalf that I wish to protest against the tenor of Prof. Gatenby's letter. It is quite evident that Prof. Gatenby has not comprehended clearly the contents of Mr. Harvey's paper; for his letter contains misstatements, and these may do a considerable amount of harm unless speedily contradicted.
