Summary:
Read John William Draper's papers; although he believes that Draper's instruments are inconsistent, JH feels that they are still important because they are measurable. Decries [L. F.] Moser's skepticism of photography's value, calling it a 'blindfolding to some of the most interesting physical relations that have ever been discovered.'
