| Description | Rix notes that in the Messrs memorandum they state that they will be returning all the stock of the Society's publications in December. In case this is written under some misapprehension Rix draws their attention to the fact that the Society's letter of 30th July only related to the separate papers from the 'Philosophical Transaction [of the Royal Society]'. 'Lendenfeld's Monograph of Sponge's, the 'Report of the Krakatoa Committee', and the 'Fort Rae Observations' will of course remain in the Messrs hands. |
