Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to Mr J Taylor, Officer of Works ''I do not think anything has yet been said about disposing of the old boiler which is now lying outside out door. As our Treasurer [John Evans] happens to be away from England just now, perhaps you could advise me on this point. Yours faithfully Herbert Rix Asst. Sec. RS [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. 21 January 1887
