Description | With reference to your letter of the 29th March, I have to inform you that it is not the practice of their Society to adjudicate upon discoveries, and, further that no paper can be received here for reading and publication by the Society which does not come "communicated" by a Fellow of the Society as suitable for that purpose. I am, Yours faithfully, Robt Harrison Asst. Sec. R. S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. |
