REMEMBERING LONSDALE

CHRISTOPHER HANAFIN,

Madam, - Mary Mulvihill (An Irishwoman's Diary, January 27th) gives the impression that Dame Kathleen Lonsdale has not been commemorated in Ireland previously. That fine edifice, the Lonsdale Building, in the University of Limerick, where my niece is completing her Ph.D, is named after that eminent scientist. - Yours, etc.,
