Description	He has been very busy getting his manuscript on insects ready for the printers as once GB Grassi and A Bignami had published their researchers he decided 'not to lose a moment'. Grassi's papers confirm Ross' observations and he is trying to obtain 'some of the credit'. Warns Ross that Koch's institute is full of birds and mosquitoes and that they will be upset on the publication of his paper discussing Ross' work and says that ATA King suggested that mosquitoes might produce immunity by inoculating an 'attended virus'.
