Abstract
THROUGH the kindness of the Editor I am able to reply to Mr. Munby's interesting letter. I did not intend by my note to imply that the “Cupron-element” was an entirely new combination, and indeed suggested that its chief claim to novelty lay in the construction of the copper oxide plate. The Accumulator Industries, Ltd., it is only fair to say, fully acknowledge in their circular that the cell is developed from the copper oxide element of Lalande and Chaperon. It is interesting to have Mr. Munby's testimony to the convenience of the cell, which is, I believe, used to a considerable extent on the Continent, but, as your correspondent says, is not very widely known in England.
