Description | 'Dear Sir, In reply to your letter of the 21st June, we know nothing here of a new Arctic Expedition. I have read in the papers of another Antarctic Expedition being organised under Mr Shackleton, who went out with the "Discovery"; but the Royal Society has no official connection with it, and I do not even know where it is being organised. I am, faithfully yours, Robt [Robert] Harrison Assistant Secretary R.S. [Royal Society]'. |
