I2S ABSOLUTE ATOMIC WEIGHT. 



vation is falsified in any way, a real sacrilege has been 

 committed as it has been committed by Mr. William 

 Crookes in the glaring case under consideration. 



We declare and shall prove all figures belotv the thousandth 

 of a grain to be absolute invention and imagination on the 

 part of Mr. William Crookes intention or not, makes no 

 difference as to the fraud upon the chemical public of the 

 world at all, a fraud that has been upheld with dogged per- 

 sistence for over a quarter of a century, by just such editors 

 of chemical journals as Mr. Crookes. 



The following table gives the residue of fact as the weigh- 

 ings, and also the analytical ratios as calculated by myself 

 from these values exclusively :
