| Creator | Divers; Edward (1837-1912); British chemist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 12 July 1908 |
| Description | He has read Larmor's obituary of Lord Kelvin which has given him some notion of what Kelvin did. He was delighted by Larmor's Royal Institution lecture and sends his congratulations for these accomplishments. Divers knows only one applicant for the chemistry chair, [William] Jackson Pope, who is also known to Larmor, and he comments on his relative youth, original thinking, and sociability as advantageous for Cambridge. |
