Title | Letter from William Jack, Nithbank, Thornhill, Dunfriesshire, to Sir Joseph [Larmor] |
Creator | Jack; William (1834-1924); British mathematician and newspaper editor |
Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
Date | 2 July 1909 |
Description | It was pleasant to receive Larmor's letter as Jack is leaving work, which he is sorry to do. His new life will take some adjusting to, but at 75 he must leave it to younger men. Larmor must have had 'bushels' of letters of congratulation on his deserved honour. |
