| Title | Letter from Arch [Archibald] Geikie, Shepherd's Down, Haslemere, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Geikie; Sir Archibald (1835-1924); British geologist and historian |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 10 November 1907 |
| Description | Larmor's letter and enclosures has arrived and Geikie will visit Burlington House on Wednesday 'to smooth things'. He comments on the 'little jealousies...of the female mind'. [Herbert] McLeod has no conception of them but [Robert Frederick William] Harrison 'is as thin-skinned as a child's balloon'. Geikie thinks the place is 'an interesting study of human nature, but...apt to be depressing'. He asks if Larmor has any views on speeches for the 30th, but they will be guided in part by acceptances. |
