Date5 November 1918
DescriptionInforms Douglas Sladen Esquire that no trace can be found of the Earl of Dundonald on the list of Fellows of the Society. As to the Earl's publications, notes that the Society has two of his works on the connection between Agriuculture and Chemistry (1795), and one on the Bitumen on Trinidad (1857). Notes that, judging by the date of the latter, it is likely to have been his sons.
