Description
Manson says that Ross' work should receive some publicity after his manifesto at the British Medical Association and that he will approach Sir C Crosthwaite and Sir A Macdonnell. He adds that Lady Ross sent him a cutting from the Pioneer and that the 'ring-forms' which Ross say in blood specimens were probably malaria parasites. Suggests Ross repeats his experiment with infected mosquito water again and that he investigates mosquito eggs and larvae.
