| Description | Rix writes to introduce Mr Tennant a schoolmaster who has made an unfortunate investment in a private school and now finds himself almost destitute. Tennant applied for a vacancy at the Royal Society, to fill Mr Soper's post but another man was elected and Rix thinks Tennant a very deserving case. Rix would be glad if Gladstone's influence could be exerted in any was on Tennant's behalf. |
