| Title | Letter from Margaret Lindsay Huggins, 90 Upper Tulse Hill, S W [South West], to Sir Joseph Larmor |
| Creator | Huggins; Margaret Lindsay (1848 - 1915); Née; Murray; wife of William Huggins FRS; Irish-English astronomer; spectroscopist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); British theoretical physicist |
| Date | 28 January 1913 |
| Description | Huggins will be moving to her new home in February, and invites Larmor to visit once she is settled. She discusses the rooms and particular furnishings. She then speaks of Larmor's work, commenting that 'the arrears of work must be heavy. This is a consequence, however of your devotion to the work of the Royal Society, and so having a noble cause must not distress you'. Huggins praises Mrs Watt's 'Life of Watts', and states that her goal, as soon as she is settled, is to finish her 'Life' of [Sir William Huggins]. |
