Sent fromKarl Pearson
11 Jan 1898
Description:
‘Mr dear Mr Galton,
...
Yours always sincerely,
Karl Pearson.
Dr Franz Boas has sent me two batches numbering altogether about 1000 sets of measurements on Indians & half-castes. The series is not very long or good but we are working out all the relations for cephalic index which alters little for growth. We have got almost 100 of each relationship, e.g. father, daughter, brother, sister, etc. I will send you a note of the results when complete.’
