Abstract
THE following method of recovering, by inspection of the harmonic series, the position of the differential resultant-tone of the first order for any given musical interval has occurred to me, and, as far as I have been able to learn, has not yet found a place in the text-books on musical acoustics which are in most common use. I therefore venture to hope that a brief statement of it may gain admittance to your columns and be the means of saving some time and trouble to students of the subject.
