| Title | Letter from Benjamin Oliveira, 8 Upper Hyde Park Street, London, to Samuel Hunter Christie, Secretary of the Royal Society |
| Date | 10 July 1854 |
| Description | Regarding the use of Oliveira's donation of £50 for a scientific object.

He would, however, be supportive of its use for a photographic apparatus for sunspots if the President and Council do not change their mind. |
