| Title | Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to Mr W Norris, Willingham Fen, Cambridge |
| Date | 5 April 1888 |
| Description | The mechanical 'contrivances' described in Norris' letter are outside the scope of the Royal Society's work, and having seen his letter, the Officers of the Society instructed Rix to tell Norris that they could not take the matter up. Rix suggests that an institute connected with mechanical engineering would be more suitable. |
