Title | Letter from William Huggins, 90 Upper Tulse Hill, S W [South West] London, to the Secretary [Joseph Larmor] |
Creator | Huggins; Sir William (1824-1910); British astronomer |
Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
Date | 3 December 1905 |
Description | Thanks Larmor for his kind letter. Huggins supposes this is why he should have separate copies of his [President's] address. He is not sure if any of his words sent to Harrison made it on time. He highlights an area that needs correcting. He feels that the 'Times' behaved very well, 'adding to the communication (yours) published on Thursday'. He wishes to print his words of special thanks to the Officers [of the Royal Society] for all they have done 'to make my duties as little burdensome as possible'. He guesses that the Fellows were generally pleased with the portrait. |
