Description | 'Dear Sir, I regret to say that, owing to the crowded state of our rooms, we have had to decline a large number of applications for invitations to our forthcoming conversazione, and the Officers are not able, therefore, to give you a card for the evening gathering. I inclose, however, a card for the Press View, to which function alone the members of the Press are invited. I am, yours truly, H Rix Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. |
