Title | Copy letter from Arthur William Rucker, to Sir Edward Frankland, [Foreign Secretary, Royal Society] |
Date | 7 October 1897 |
Description | Encloses copies of the documents received from Signor Colombo relative to the [Galileo] Ferraris memorial, a copy of his letter to Silvanus Thompson, and Thompson's reply [no attachments]. Harrison has not located any previous communication from Colombo to the Royal Society. Rucker thinks this is a matter for [Edward] Frankland as Foreign Secretary. Discusses why the mistake may have arisen and how the Society might respond officially or unofficially. |
