Rebekah Higgitt says...
Turner today attended a regular meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society in his role as one of the Secretaries. The other Secretary was another ROG employee, E. Walter Maunder. Turner was later, in 1903-1905, to be the Society's President. The proceedings of this day's meeting, as reported in The Observatory, a magazine founded in the 1870s by Christie, can be seen here.
