Autograph letter to an unnamed recipient attacking Hugh Poyntz Malet's pronouncements on the Nebular Hypothesis theory in his book "The Beginings", published in 1878, 26 September 1879, 4 pp., old folds, 8vo, plus Harding (Reginald Tuffley, 1870-1917). Autograph letter on how to construct a bichromate battery for producing electric light, Rugby School, 20 May 1884, 6 pp., a few crude sketches, some light soiling and splits along folds, 8vo, with three other manuscripts: An autograph letter from Austrian emigre and auctioneer Alexander Cassano, 11 May 1808 in which he pleads against transportation to the colonies for letting his auction rooms in Piccadilly to a debating society; an archive of 28 autograph letters written mostly by statesman Lord Hartington to Manchester merchant William Rayner Wood on political meetings and elections for appointing Officers for the County of Lancashire (1850's-60's) and a manuscript deposition from plaintiff Elizabeth Wakefield against defendant Mary Ross for trespass and causing wilful damage to her house in Handsworth, West Midlands, circa 1828 (Qty: 6)NOTESThe first letter from Isaac Milner, mathematician and Dean of Carlisle, describes his chemical experiments to investigate whether water caused the oxidisation of lead, and discovered that it was in fact air, and describes experiments to produce a tincture of sulphur to identify lead in other substances, including wine; the second letter from Harry Seeley attacks Malet's rejection of Laplace's Nebular Hypothesis, "He mistakes the tools of the scientific man for science itself, and denies the tools to those who can use them, because he does not know or understand or appreciate the results which have thereby been obtained. Among such tools is the nebular hypothesis... Such writings of Mr. Malet's seems unwise, because it presents to the public the little one-sided knowledge which is dangerous and thereby tends to prevent people who believe in him from believing in the teachings of scientific men."; the third letter is from Reginald Harding, aged 13, writing at his father's behest to a Mr Hamel, detailing how to construct a bichromate battery in a long-neck bottle, with illustrations, and recommends the use of vacuum bulbs to produce electric light. The Rugby School notepaper has the name E.A. Scott (Edward Ashley Scott, Harding's house master) who perhaps assisted the young pupil with this information.
