Citation | The Revd Mr George Walker of Yarmouth desiring to be admitted into the Royal Society, We whose names are here subjoined do recommend him to the choice of the members, thinking, from the personal knowledge we have of him, that he is deserving of that honour, especially on account of his skill in the Mathematical sciences, in several branches of which he has made some considerable improvements. A small specimen of his abilities in this way was presented to the society the last year, in the solution of a curious and useful astronomical problem |
