We have studied the relaxation of then-spin correlation function (n)> and distribution functionP n((n);t) for the Glauber model of the one-dimensional Ising lattice. We find that new combinations of correlation functions (C-functions) and distribution functions (Q-functions) are more useful in discussing the relaxation of this system from initial nonequilibrium states than the usual cumulants and Ursell functions used in our papers I and II.
