TitleLetter from William A Tilden, The Oaks, Northwood, Middlesex, to [William Whitehead] Watts
CreatorTilden; Sir William Augustus (1842-1926); British chemist
RecipientWatts; William Whitehead (1860-1947); British geologist and educationalist
Date5 September 1918
DescriptionWatts' letter on the 'Annals of the Philosophical Club' does not give much detail on the publication, and he complains about members of the Philosophical Club being asked to pay £5 for two copies of the book. He compares this with Geikie's 'Annals of the Royal Society Club' and wonders what other members think of the scheme, thinking that unless a majority agree to it, the matter should be discussed.
