TitleLetter from [Richard Tetley] Glazebrook, The National Physical Laboratory, Bushy House, Teddington, Middlesex, to [Robert William Frederick] Harrison
CreatorGlazebrook; Sir; Richard Tetley (1854-1935); British physicist
Date1 August 1905
Description'Dear Mr Harrison, Some little time since I communicated a paper by Major Lenox Conyngham to the Royal Societydealing with the Indian Pendulum work. I want to use some of the results in connexion [sic] with the reduction of the Antarctic Pendulum work. In particular, I want to know what value Major Conyngham assumes for "g" at Kew and what is the difference between Kew and Greenwich. If the paper is still at the R.S. could someone extract these facts from it or could I see it for a short time if I came up for the purpose. Yours truly, R T Glazebrook.'
