Abstract
Minute book of the Ashmolean club
Biographical / Historical
The origins of the Club are not absolutely clear. Although the first minute book of the Club (present elsewhere in Bodleian collections under the shelfmark MS. Top. Oxon. f. 64) is dated 1869-1930, some of the members mentioned in it are recorded as having been elected in previous years. The purpose of the Club is to enable those sympathetic to science at Oxford to meet informally.
Immediate Source of Acquisition
Given by the Club per Professor Sir Ewart Jones.
