Date24 April 1894
Description'Soirée
Dear Prof. Ayrton,
Mr L. Pyke is desirous to exhibit on May 2nd a "novel multiplan continuous current dynamo". Lord Rayleigh thinks that we should inquire whether you consider it a suitable exhibit and sufficiently novel. I may say that we are not in any very great want of exhibits now.
Yrs [Yours] truly
H Rix
Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'.
