170. Mevrick (E.). 1 8 //^/j/ 1897. 



" I have no objection to the publication of these answers ; it 

 could hardly serve much purpose, however, unless intended to give 

 rise to a general discussion and pronouncement." 



171. KiRBY (W. F.). 20 July 1897. 



" I have no objection to my replies being printed, and think 

 that the publication of the whole series of answers would be useful 

 and interesting. I have thought it better to abstain from making 

 any alterations in my original replies, though certain points referred 

 to have been cleared up by portions of the correspondence which I 

 had not seen when writing." 



172. Fernald (C. H.). 



*' I have nothing further to add, only that I think it would be 

 well to publish the opinions of these gentlemen on the proposed 

 questions." 



173. Smith (J. B.). 



" I think the replies should be published. I have nothing to add 

 to what I have written, other than thanks for the careful analysis 

 prepared by Lord Walsingham*, which shows that on most of the 

 more important points there can be obtained practical agreement. 

 I believe the publication would serve the useful purpose of bringing 

 the evidence relied upon before the younger students." 



174. Snellen (P. C. T.). 30 October 1897. 



[Vide Snellen 166. Durrani^ 



"Je regrette de ne pouvoir apporter des donnees nouvelles qui 

 eclairciraient davantage les points en litige et je prends la liberte 

 de maintenir mes opinions, enoncees plus haut. Neanmoins, je 

 crois que la publication de toiites les reponses donnees, ainsi que du 

 resume que Lord Walsingham* a bien voulu faire, serait d'une 

 grande utilite." 



175. Grote (A. R.). 10 Nov. 1897. 



" As to the publication you" [i.e. Sir George Hampson — D7ir7-ant\ 

 "will be the best judge of whether it will serve your purposes, and 

 I can only say you are very welcome to make any use of what I 

 have written, from printer's copy to the waste-paper basket." 



* "Mr J. Hartley Durrant " vide Walsingham, z.x\X.q page 278. Durrani.
