Letter from N.M. Muzumdar, Tata Sons Limited, Navsari Buildings, Fort, Bombay, to William Bate Hardy, Secretary of the Royal Society, Burlington House, London Sir Dorabji Tata has just returned to Bombay [Mumbai] after enforced rest at Ootacamund [Udagamandalam]. He has addressed a letter to the Government of Bombay, which he copies to Hardy. In this, Tata reviews the negotiations around the establishment of a Bombay School of Tropical Medicine and the Government's failure to carry out its promises. The scheme has been abandoned by them. Tata was particularly annoyed at the treatment of Neil Hamilton Fairley and has had no reply to his letter of protest from two months ago. This is also a discourtesy to the Royal Society. He is writing seperately to Sir Walter Fletcher. He hopes that the Society will sympathise in his disappointment at the failure to establish a research institute. 26 July 1922
