Letters from V. G. Nabar, Jim and Annie Nistkin, S. R. Nockolds, Noel E. Odell, J. G. Oldroyd, Peggie Phipps, Eric Pitts, Nansi Pugh, A. G. Pugsley, Jack Ratcliffe, Ernest F.

Scientific and personal correspondence. Taylor's letters are photocopies kindly made available by Saffman.
Correspondence 1956-57 and 1963 is re collaborative papers by Taylor and Saffman; none of Saffman's letters for this period survive here.
Correspondence 1970-71 is on porous disc experiments and boundary layers.

The correspondence 1950-51 consists of photocopies of Taylor's letters to Rothschild, kindly made available by him. It relates to Taylor's study of the swimming of microscopic organisms and his papers on the subject. Though this work had its immediate origin in an enquiry from Rothschild about the movement of spermatozoa, Taylor says in his letter of 24 April 1951: `I had thought about this problem long before you mentioned it in connection with your work. Bidder used to write to me about it'. George Parker Bidder (1863-1953) was a marine biologist, who lectured at Cambridge and had dining rights at Trinity between the wars.

The letters of 1970 are on the trajectory of golf balls.

Includes: Taylor's resignation from Undex Panel [Underwater explosions], Royal Naval Scientific Service, 1964. In his letter accepting Taylor's resignation, R.H. Purcell, Chairman of the Undex Panel, writes: 'I am very sorry indeed to hear you find it necessary to resign from the Undex Panel and Sub-Panel. It is with much hesitation that I acknowledge your official severance from Undex.
You were the fountain head in so many ways of the big advances made in the field of underwater explosions since 1939. Your papers on shock wave theory and on the damage processes led to important advances; also your paper on the vertical motion of the bubble was the foundation of bubble theory. In addition, in the early days of Undex you inspired people like Penney, Temperley, Fox and Bryant (to name only a few) who in turn made their contributions. In every respect your guidance on both Undex Panels has been of immense value.'
There is a similar letter from A.N. Harrison, Director of Naval Construction.
