Copy letter from [Alfred Bray] Kempe, to Messrs Few & Company Enclosing letters from Messrs Fladgate & Company and the late William Mackinnon [no enclosures]. The proposed advance of £50 to Mackinnon is not for the purposes of education, which the Council of the Royal Society permitted £300 to be kept by McKinnon's executors. Kempe cannot deal with the matter as Treasurer, but it will be brought before the next Council. 5 March 1901
