| Description | 'My Lord,
Inclosed herewith I send, by Dr Foster's instructions, a list of papers to be read on the 18th. Also, another list of the physical papers on hand, from which I am to ask you to choose two* to add to the list of papers to be read, and two more which I may add if any of Dr Foster's fall through. Could you send both lists back on Monday?
Yours truly,
Herbert Rix
Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]
