From:
Sir John Herschel
To:
Richard Sheepshanks
Date:
[26 December 1846]
Source of text:
RS:HS 16.54 (C: RS:HS 25.9.31)
Summary:

Did not understand the steps necessary by the R.A.S. rules and that an appeal to a general meeting was necessary [regarding awarding medals, e.g., for the discovery of Neptune]. Assures him that W. H. Smyth did not write anything of which RS could disapprove. Believes the council has the discretion to deal with anything that comes before it.
