TitleLetter from G E Hemmen, Royal Society to J D A Stainton, Ranau, North Borneo
Date22 June 1961 - 26 June 1961
DescriptionExplains why he had not replied to an earlier letter from Stainton. Encloses a report from the film processing laboratory and gives his own comments on the film, although is concerned about appearing to be too critical. Main comments on the film is that it is underexposed, and that the framing could be better. Asks if Stainton can let him know how the plant drier is working, so that the information can be passed on to Mr Williams at the British Museum.

Attached to copy of a telegram sent to Stainton 22nd June 1961, with a short note of advice on the film.
