TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Louis Brennan
Date16 May 1907
DescriptionHarrison sends thanks for Brennan's letter, to which he has responded via telegram. He explains that it is not that they do not wish Brennan to show his demonstration at the Ladies Soiree, but rather that they are conscious of there being less space available at that event, and consequently exhibits for each Soiree are considered separately. The Committee will meet the next day, and Harrison will write again after that meeting, and it is because of this that he asked Brennan to keep the matter open until the following week.

The President and other Officers were not able to study Brennan's invention thoroughly at the May Soiree, due to their official duties, and would be glad of the opportunity to do so.
