| Title | Letter from A B [Alfred Bray] Kempe, the Royal Society, Burlington House, London, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Kempe; Sir Alfred Bray (1849-1922); British lawyer and mathematician |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 26 October 1902 |
| Description | If Kempe had any idea that the proposed alteration to statutes woudl effect a revolution in the Royal Society's traditions, he would oppose it. It would be fatal to alter the present mode of conducting affairs. However, it seems to him that the proposed alterations would simply place necessary routine business on a more satisfactory footing, by keeping the Assistant Secretary informed of what is going on. Kempe gives more opinions, concluding that he would be sorry to support any changes that the Officers were not agreed upon, and the matter should be thrashed out in the present committee. |
