  <dc:title>Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to Messrs Drake &amp; Gorham</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Asks for advice regarding the use of the electric lantern for Mr Joseph Norman Lockyer's demonstrations on 10 January, namely whether it would be advisable, given the present condition of the cells, to run the engine during the meeting at which it will be used. Rix notes that any failure would be 'disastrous'.</dc:description>
