Autograph Letter Signed to GIMSON
(Sydney Ansell, 1860-1938, from 1888 President of the Leicester Secular Society) saying that he has received this morning the agenda for a Governor's Meeting in London... On that day I shall unfortunately be examining at the University of Glasgow and regret my inability to attend the meeting. I am beginning to wonder whether I was wise in saying I would join the Governors as it may be that it will be difficult for me to attend the meetings owing to clashing with other engagements..., 1 side A4, Botany School, Cambridge, 16th June
