| Creator | Huggins; Sir William (1824-1910); British astronomer |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 21 August 1906 |
| Description | Confirming that Huggins did not suggest any changes in the proofs. The 'radium fireworks' will still be in the 'Times'. Yesterday there was a second and longer letter for Kelvin. Today another letter from [Lord Rayleigh, John William] Strutt in which he asks Kelvin "a plain question" with 'the connotation of a man who believes that his adversary is in a Tight Corner'. He is grieved that [Oliver Joseph] Lodge's illness is so serious. He discusses Frank[?]. He writes that 'For so many years L has done whatever he wanted unchecked at the RS. Now there is C as well as L'. He ends by listing titles for Larmor's amusement on holiday. |
