Summary
A few days after learning of the event reported in the preceding Letter one of us noticed another Λ beta decay. This second event was found in the film taken in the course of an experiment in which an electrostatically separated K beam was passed into the Berkeley 15-inch hydrogen bubble chamber. (Extracted from the introductory part of the paper.).
