Abstract
⺠I examine the motivations that Weldon and Pearson had for engaging in statistics. ⺠It is often argued that reasons for using statistics lead to different methods. ⺠Weldon and Pearson, however, have different motivation but identical methods. ⺠Weldon's philosophy of science is interesting, yet under-studied.
