| Title | Letter from W T [William Turner] Thiselton-Dyer, The Ferns, Wicombe, Gloucester, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Dyer; Sir William Turner Thiselton- (1843-1928); British botanist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 28 September [?] 1910 |
| Description | It would require careful investigation to establish the scientific position or promise of any young botanists and if any were coming to the front. He cannot say if R.P. [Reginald Philip] Gregory is likely to become a botanist of distinction; if so he would have at least been a candidate for the Royal Society but it appears he is not even in the Linnean Society. Thiselton-Dyer knew him some years ago and thought he was lucky to get a Fellowship. He saw the account in The Times and it appears that the Croonian Lecture was not an illuminating performance. |
