On 8 Oct 1863, John Tyndall sends his regrets and encouragement to (most likely the medical publisher) John Churchill following a conversation they have had regarding the founding of a new scientific journal; he states his busyness as the reason for non-participation. "Dear Sir, On reviewing the work which I have at present in hand I find it to be of such a magnitude as to deter me from committing myself to anything further at present. To my regret therefore I find myself unable to take part in your proposed scientific journal.

The subject, as I told you yesterday, has more or less occupied the thoughts of some of my friends and myself for the last two or three years. Yours very truly John Tyndall" This is an autograph letter signed on three pages of ivory laid paper.
