TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Professor George Howard Darwin, Fellow of the Royal Society
Date15 December 1898
DescriptionThe reply sent to Darwin was the same in form as that which is habitually used in communicating with the Chairman of other Sectional Committees. If Darwin has not seen it before it is because Professor [Arthur William] Rucker has generally written Darwin a letter himself. As Darwin's term does not expire until the end of this month, Harrison has made application to him in the regular course to suggest the names of referees to whom Dixon's paper may be sent.
