First appearance of Bellerby's semnial paper interoducing the first reliable pregnancy test: The Xenopus tead pregnancy textHogben had in 1930 demonstrated that that if the Xenopus toad was injected with anterior pituitary preparations ovulation and oviposition could be induced. Bellerby in 1933 showed thatif instead of keeping the frogs in a cold underground room he housed them in warm and well lit surroundings he could eliminate the 'captivity effect' and achieve reliability of testing close to 100%. With the minimized captivity effect Bellerby showed that this phenomenon could be utilized as a pregnancy test.

Early edition of this classic work. “The Book of Common Prayer was outlawed ancient liturgy was forbidden and any affection for it was cause for arrest and punishment. Sparrow then a priest in exile composed this magisterial Commentary as a commentary on the disappearing liturgy and perhaps also a rallying cry for the forlorn Church in exile. However to the astonishment of the world the church returned from the brink of destruction to a renewed period of flourishing; and in the successive years published the Prayer Book of 1662 as the most famous testament to the longevity of God’s people…one of the most important commentaries yet published up to that point.”-Anglican.net.
