| Title | Copy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison to Sir David Gill, KCB, FRS |
| Date | 9 January 1913 |
| Description | 'I have a letter from Mr Charles Darwin in which he tells me that the paper connected with the Geodetic Association, which were in his father's possession, have been sent to you and that you desire to know whether you are to retain them. The appointment of a successor to Sir George Darwin rests with the Government, hitherto on the recommendation of the Royal Society. And pending this determination, I think you should retain in your custody the documents in question.' |
