| Creator | Milne; John (1850-1913) |
| Date | 2 July 1908 |
| Description | Conveys a request from the Seismological Committee of the British Association who seek permission to publish the Royal Society's resolution from 6 December 1906, in their upcoming report. States a copy of the resolution is included with the letter [enclosure present]. The resolution emphasises the importance of maintaining the existing practice where all seismological reports and observations for the United Kingdom are collected and transmitted by Professor Milne. It acknowledges the independence of each cooperating station while expressing caution about sending original seismograms by post, opting instead for the distribution of photographic copies. |
