TitleLetter from Ernest [William] Brown, Haverford College, Haverford, to Professor [Joseph] Larmor, Secretary of the Royal Society
CreatorBrown; Ernest William (1866-1938)
Date6 April 1904
DescriptionBrown appreciates being asked to be a representative of the Royal Society at the jubilee celebration of the University of Wisconsin. However, due to the distance between Madison and Philadelphia and the date of the celebration he would not be able to present himself there. Therefore Brown would not think it right to accept the responsibility, but will do so if the Society 'wishes'.
