Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to Captain Ettrick William Creak, Fellow of the Royal Society, The Admiralty, S.W. 'Dear Captain Creak, Could you send word by bearer from whom I am to expect the final draft of your Memorandum and when I shall get it? I understand it ought to be circulated before the Committee meets, which means by tomorrow's post at latest, since the Committee meets on Wednesday. I have sent second copies to Captain Wharton and Prof. [Professor Arthur William] Rucker. I am, yours truly, H Rix Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society] I am assuming that Capt Wharton & Prof Rucker are to make modifications but perhaps I am not to wait for these, am I? HR'. 7 May 1894
