  <dc:title>Letter from James Wilson, Treasury Chambers, to Lord Wrottesley, [President of the Royal Society]</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Regarding the Society's application for the annual grant of £1,000 for scientific purposes. Wilson notes the limitations of public funds being dedicated to such objectives and conveys the Lords Commissioners' decision not to make any grants for scientific purposes. He does reiterate the possibility to apply for the public fund for a cause recognised by parliament. </dc:description>
