| Title | Copy letter, John William Lubbock, Treasurer of the Royal Society, to [Josiah Forshall] the Secretary of the British Museum |
| Date | 2 September 1831 |
| Description | Lubbock is sure that the [British Museum] duplicate books were selected by a committee for that purpose, but they cannot have been aware that they were ordering odd volumes from sets, parts of books, or items already in the Royal Society's possession. He intends to ask for a copy of Payne and Foss's valuation and asks that this be authorised. |
