With reference to your earlier question on FOM

> Q1. Is there even one article or book on analysis published since 1950
> that uses a result in analysis attributed to Boole?

In

  Glasser, "Some useful properties of the Hilbert transform"
  SIAM J. Math. Anal. 15 (1984),

the author adds in proof that some results in his paper
were obtained by Boole in "On the comparison of transcendents"
Phil. Trans, Part III (1857).

Glasser's paper can be found at

Best wishes
