Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to J W Swan, Lauriston, Bromley, Kent 'Dear Sir, I have your note of yesterday's date. I regret to say that we have not a single corner where we could put another exhibit. If we had known earlier we might have managed it; at present it is quite impossible. It appears to me that it would be an interesting exhibit for the June Soirée, and I will mention the matter at the next meeting of the Soirée Committee. I am, yours truly, H Rix Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. 26 April 1894
