TitleLetter from [Major Edmond Herbert Grove Hills], 32 Prince's Gardens, S.W., to [Herbert Hall] Turner
Date6 February 1912
DescriptionWrites 'This is a pleasant surprise!' Is glad that the Committee [for publishing the collected papers of William Herschel, which Hills is a part of] can now do something. Thinks that the Royal Astronomical Society's Council is morally bound to pay half of the printing costs. Notes that this will seriously cripple their finances.
