"Better come up, Connor," he said, gravely, "and bring your bromides along.
For these reasons, I venture to say that ammonium bromide, which figures so largely in formulae for gelatine emulsions, is one of the worst bromides that can be employed for that purpose, and is, indeed, a frequent source of pink fog and frilling.
