Description | 'Dear Sir, In answer to your note of yesterday, I will ask the Treasurer what he thinks about your proposal. As to the "Gossip" paragraph, I think it will be better to reserve that until I have had time to write to the various academies. I hardly like that they should receive the blow first through the public press. Yours truly, H Rix Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. |
