Letter from William Fletcher Barrett, FRS, to James Mackenzie Davidson Informs Mackenzie Davidson that he went to the Royal Society on the 30th and sat in on a Council Meeting. Notes that the reading of reports went on for so long that he had to leave before saying what he intended to say [unspecified]. However, notes that when someone has done so much work for a particular field as Mackenzie Davidson has, [their cadidature] is usually passed over. 6 December [1909]
