Comments on MF's experimental results when an electromagnetic field affects polarized light.
Has just seen mention of MF's latest experiments showing the connection of light and magnetism. Comments on these. Proves some of his own theories to be correct.
Sends details of an experiment he would like MF to carry out. Cannot do it himself as he has no suitable glass.
Has opened the sealed paper MF sent, and JH is now returning it.
