[3]In
a
footnote
to
the
published
discussion
following
Einstein's lecture
(Einstein
et
al. 1913
[Doc. 18]),
Reißner
points
out that
Einstein's
response
to his
comment
was
based
on a
mis-
understanding
and
reiterates
his
question
in
more
detail
(see
Einstein
et
al. 1913
[Doc. 18],
pp.
1265-1266).
[4]In
Einstein
et
al. 1913 (Doc.
18),
p.
1265, the
text
reads "effects"
("Einwirkungen")
instead
of "influences"
("Einflüssen").

review of Einstein's earlier work
on
the
inertia of

in the

The
following argument
did
not appear in
Einstein's earlier work
on a
generalized theory
of
relativity, although
Einstein
had
probably already
arrived
at
the
results
presented
below
by
early
June
1913
(see

to
Michele
Besso,
