Description | 'Dear Madam, Your letter of yesterday has reached me enclosing one which you have addressed to the President & Council of the Royal Society. There will be a meeting of the Council next week and your request will then be considered. In the meantime allow me to express my own gratification that the life-long work of my old friend Dr Sang is now likely to be preserved to the nation. Yours faithfully Arch [Archibald] Geikie'. |
