Letter from William Huggins, 90 Upper Tulse Hill, S W [South West] London, to the Secretary [Joseph Larmor] Thanks Larmor for his proofs, and states that he is in agreement with his words about the telecope, of which he then discusses its ownership. He recalls [George Gabriel] Stokes's letter regarding the advantages of a large telescope for 'bodies of a sensible size or nebulae'. He is surprised at [William] Herschel's insistance on 'the obvious intrinsic illumination not increased of sufaces, as seen in a telescope, as if it were some novel or overlooked point'. He comments on the liveliness of the York meeting [of the British Association for the Advancement of Science]. 18 August 1906
