TitleLetter from J [John] Joly, Somerset House, Temple Road, Dublin, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorJoly; John (1857-1933); Irish geologist and physicist
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Dateno date [c.1907?]
DescriptionHe appeals to Larmor 'as a scientific man' not to oppose a resolution of a non-political character. Larmor cannot wish for science to be extinguished there. Their danger is greater than that of the Queen's Colleges, because only in their cases can inter-collegiate relations arise. The matter was kept in view when Belfast acquiesed to the scheme put forward by the Robertson Commission. He hopes that Larmor will stand by the School of Science.

With some pencilled notes by Joseph Larmor.
