Date30 January 1900
DescriptionHeard today from Professor [James] Dewar about Dr Macfadyen's paper. Dewar has suggested Foster give an account of the paper at the meeting and that he will say something about it. Dewar also has to attend a meeting of the Chemical Society and therefore asks for Macfadyen's paper not to be the last on the list. Rucker suggests it be placed after Sir William Abney's paper. Asks if Foster will arrange the matter with the President.
