TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Professor Arthur Schuster, Fellow of the Royal Society
Date5 April 1906
DescriptionSchuster's letter to Sir Archibald Geikie, responding to a message from Monsieur Lapparent, arrived at the Royal Society and has been forwarded to him, but he is unlikely to receive a reply for some time as Geikie is recovering from an eye operation.

Harrison enquires if anyone from the British Academy is going to Vienna. He also asks for an address from Schuster in case the reply arrives after he has left England.
