Copy letter, James Hudson, Assistant Secretary of the Royal Society, to Thomas Botfield Hudson has received a note of £10, Botfield's admission fee to the Royal Society and he provides a receipt. Hudson explains the following two years' payments, based upon Botfield's date of election. Because there is only one Council meeting held before Botfield's formal admission is due, Hudson has entered an extension period to go before Council. Since he has already paid his fee, Hudson does not doubt that Counncil will accept this. 4 May 1833
