  <dc:title>Copy letter from [James Hopwood Jeans, Secretary of the Royal Society], to Sir Joseph John Thomson, Sir William [Henry] Bragg, and Sir Ernest Rutherford</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Informs the recipients that Lord Rayleigh [Robert John Strutt] has applied for the loan of 70 mgrams of radium chloride, which he wishes to use to examine the official spectrum of gases excited by the radiations of the emanation, and wants to dissolve the radium in water for this. Confirms that Sir Joseph John Thomson, who did have the radium, is now done with it. Asks if the recipients are in favour of the loan being made to Rayleigh. </dc:description>
