TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison to Professor E [Edward] A [Alfred] Minchin FRS
Date11 December 1912
Description'I do not wish to worry you about the drawings to Miss Robertson's paper, but as we are very anxious to get the paper out as soon as possible it occures to me that you might perhaps be able to let us have such of the plates as are noe re-drawn, so that we could pass them on to the engravers and so get forward without waiting for the complete series which may not yet be ready.
If we could start on the engraving now we might get the blocks ready by the same time the text is printed and passed, and that might mean that we should be able to get the paper out of our hands before the Xmas recess and so save a delay of a week or more.
However I have no wish to worry, as I said, and I should be quite content to leave the matter to be dealt with by you according to your own convenience.'
