Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, Assistant Secretary of the Royal Society to C E Rose, HM Office of Works 'There are certain decoration works (almost entirely limited to whitening ceilings) which I think must be done during our vacation, and I should be very glad if you could arrange either for yourself or Mr Winskell to come and see me about it early next week. I suppose labour is scarce but this would be very simple work.' 22 July 1915
