  <dc:title>Letter from Sir James Dewar, to Robert Harrison, Assistant Secretary of the Royal Society</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Notes that he [Dewar] received the Resolution of Council, send acknowledgement of it, and sent a letter to the President of the Royal Society on 7 July. Encloses a copy of this letter, so that it can be placed before Council. Dewar explains that he is taking this additional measure because 'the expectancy of life at 75 is short, and I wish documents essentially connected with my good name should not go missing'. Learns that the President of the Society is busy with serious family trouble and cannot reply immediately.</dc:description>
