Copy letter from J C W [John Charles William] Herschel, Westbury Vicarage, Brackley, Northants., to Sir Alfred [Egerton], the Secretary, the Royal Society, London The tin boxes and packets [of Herschel papers] listed in Egerton's letter of 20 August are now ready for collection. He has given those recommended by Egerton to the Royal Astronomical Society. Egerton had suggested making a copy of the catalogue, but this is unnecessary, as there are two copies in existence; the lists inside the boxes duplicate these. He has found a note by his grandfather about the bust of William Herschel, but has no other reference. With a pencilled note: 'parcels taken Feb 21 & boxes taken Feb 25th 1944 by Mr. Robinson, Librarian, R.S.'. November 1943
