Description'Dear Sir William Huggins,
Lord Rayleigh has brought me the enclosed letter from Professor Liveing with regard to Mr Hardy's radium, and has requested me to ask you whether you would definitely recommend the purchase of the radium on the terms Professor Liveing mentionsm namely, £181.10 for the 50 mgrms.
