Hitcham, Bildeston, Suffolk - JSH has no hesitation in considering Mr E's manuscript worth publishing among the miscellaneous materials: 'I have a diagram introduced last year at my lectures, which show how readily the fundamental spiral may be detected, by noting the intersection of 2 secondary spirals coiled in opposite directions. But the speculations of Mr E, in his mode of resolving the fundamental spiral, and his ingenious conjectures and suggestions, so far as I have hitherto been able to look into them, are new to me'.
