Copy letter from Herbert Rix, to John Whitaker Hulke, Fellow of the Royal Society 'Dear Sir, I will summon the Committee for Monday at 4. Inclosed herewith is receipt for your kind donation. I cannot answer you as to the why and wherefore of such investments, unless it be that a high interest is really more important to small investors than it is to large ones; but one should have thought that safety was still more important. I am, yours truly, H Rix Asst. Sec. R.S. [Assistant Secretary, Royal Society]'. 16 July 1894
