TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to [Frank Watson] Dyson, Fellow of the Royal Society
Date13 June 1913
DescriptionProfessor [Arthur] Schuster may have spoken to him yesterday but in case he did not with any definite result, Harrison was to write and ask whether Dyson thinks it desirable to summon a meeting of the Observatories Committee before the end of the session. The only actual business to lay before it is the question of the appointment of an assistant in India, and as there have been considerable difficulties in securing a suitable man it was thought that he might wish to have it brought before the Committee at a meeting.
