TitleLetter from W E Deighton, Private Secretary to Sir William Bragg PRS, to J D Griffith Davies Assistant Secretary to the Royal Society
Date25 April 1940
Description ' Professor Topley has sent Sir Willliam Bragg your correspondence with Dr Slater and also applications from Mr Robinson and Mr Haggart to be signed, but I cannot quite make out to whom these applications should be returned. The addresses on the applications are in Newcastle, but Dr Slater writes from Totnes and mentions Dr Shaw to whom I presume they should be sent, but I do not see his address - perhaps you know it, so I am sending you these applications duly signed by Sir William.

At the same time I am enclosing a number of applications from Boots Pure Drug Co, which Sir William will be glad if Professor Topley will vet for him. Sir Willliam would also be glad if you would ask Professor Topley, if, in view of his letter on the 24th of April and his talk with Dr Giles, he considers it necessary for Sir William to refer future applications to him for his approval?
