Letter from Henry George Lyons to John David Griffith Davies, 3 York Terrace, Regent's Park, N.W.1 Is glad Davies had a good Christmas at home. Asks for a copy of the new designs for the 'Notes [and Records]' cover. Thinks Davies' [Joseph] Banks note will be suitable and useful [for publication]. Lyons is looking at an article on what the Presidents and Secretaries of the first two centuries did or did not do for the [Royal] Society. Discusses a framework for a connected history of the Society. 'Odd things come to light, but would that there were more letters!' 4 January 1940
