TitleCopy letter from Herbert Rix, to Professor Joseph Norman Lockyer, Fellow of the Royal Society
Date17 April 1893
DescriptionRix asks Lockyer to disregard the note he sent this morning. The printers succeeded in stopping all but one or two cards and altering the advertisement, and Lord Rayleigh [John William Strutt] decides that it will be better to postpone Mr [Francis Cranmer] Penrose's paper since the author cannot be present. It will probably be taken [read] on the following Thursday.
