Description
Manson says that he has been working on the mosquitoes which Ross sent him, finding that the ones preserved in glycerine are better than those in osmic acid and formulin, and that he has had two malaria cases but has not been able to infect mosquitoes. He has heard E H Hankin should be given an assistant to work on malaria and if it is not Ross, he is still to press on as the other men in India are way behind him. He gives some recent references to recent work on malaria.
