Title | Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Professor George Howard Darwin, Fellow of the Royal Society |
Date | 8 March 1897 |
Description | Harrison has just received Sir [Joseph] Norman Lockyer's report on [Francis Cranmer] Penrose's paper on the orientation of temples. Lockyer says the paper is one of the 'first order or importance; and should certainly be published in full with the illustrations in the 'Philosophical Transactions [of the Royal Society]'. Harrison should be glad to hear what, if any, further steps should be taken with this paper and whether Darwin proposes to call together a meeting of the Sectional Committee for Mathematics to consider it. |
