  <dc:title>Letter from Ernest Rutherford, FRS, 17 Wimslow Road, Withington, Manchester, to James Mackenzie Davidson</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Comments that there was no time to call on Mackenzie Davidson during his last trip to London, otherwise he would have been delighted to work together. Notes that they will be using every fracture of their supplies this week [radium], however, he will try and get some spare next week. Does not think it would be possible to make a thin glass spiral to let alpha rays through, though one could make one cosy enough to let beta rays through. </dc:description>
