Recipient | Kempe; Sir; Alfred Bray (1849-1922) |
Date | 20 May 1903 |
Description | Dispatches from Commander [Robert Falcon] Scott were brought to the Royal Society by [Cyril] Longhurst. They arrived on Monday, 'and it eems strange that Sir Clements Markham should not at once have communicated them to us'. Copies will be made and sent to the officers, and Harrison suggests a copy should be shown to Admiral [William] Wharton. The dispatches are marked private and confidential. Harrison hopes Markham will observe this, but he expects 'to see a good deal of it in the Times tomorrow'. |
