  <dc:title>Letter from W D [William Davidson] Niven, Eastburn, Sidcup, to [Joseph] Larmor </dc:title>
  <dc:description>A visit in eight days would suit Niven, and he wishes Larmor could stay longer. He will ask [William] Burnside over to dine. Mrs. Burnside seems better. He supposes it unnecessary to have a detailed account of [Alfred George] Greenhill's work ready for the next Council meeting, but the quality and quantity of his work deserve the proposed recognition [of a Royal Medal]. The Sylvester Medal might be more appropriate. He visited Christie's garden that afternoon and saw Sir W. [William Henry?] White. In a postscript Niven notes that he had no hand in stopping Greenhill's paper and he understood he would omit the parts where exception had been taken.    </dc:description>
