Lord Kelvin, October 1893 to Pierre Curie
"I am much obliged to you for your letter of Saturday and the information contained in it, which is exceedingly interesting to me.
"If I call at your laboratory between 10 and 11 tomorrow morning should I find you there? There are two or three things I would like to speak to you about; (etc).
"Yours truly,
"KELVIN."

From PIERRE CURIE (1923) by Marie Curie
During 1903 we went to London at the invitation of the Royal Institution, before which my husband was to lecture on radium. On this occasion he had a most enthusiastic reception. He was especially happy to see here again Lord Kelvin, who had always expressed an affection for him, and who, despite his advanced age, preserved an interest, perennially young, in science. The illustrious scientist showed, with touching satisfaction, a glass vial containing a grain of radium salt that Pierre Curie had given him. We met here also other celebrated scientists, as Crookes, Ramsay, and J. Dewar In collaboration with the latter, Pierre Curie published investigations on the discharge of heat by radium at very low temperatures, and upon the formation of helium in radium salt.

From Madame Curie (1938) by Eve Curie
[ . . . ] in June 1903, the Royal Institution officially invited Pierre Curie to lecture on radium. The physicist accepted and went to London with his wife for this ceremonial.
A familiar face welcomed them, shining with friendliness and benevolence : Lord Kelvin. The illustrious old man made the success of the young couple his personal business, and was as proud of their researches as if they had been his own. He took them to see his laboratory ; as they went along, he threw a paternal arm over Pierre�s shoulder. With touching pleasure he showed his collaborators the present that had been brought him from Paris : it was a true physicist�s present, a precious particle of radium enclosed in a glass. Tube.
On the evening of the lecture Lord Kelvin was seated beside Marie—the first woman who had ever been admitted to the sessions of the Royal Institution. In the crowded hall, the whole of English science gathered : Sir William Crookes, Lord Rayleigh,
Lord Avebury, Sir Frederick Bramwell, Sir Oliver Lodge, Professors Dewar, Ray Lankester, S.P. Thompson, Armstrong. . . . Speaking in French, with his slow voice, Pierre described the properties of radium. Then he asked for darkness and proceeded to make several striking experiments : by the witchcraft of radium he discharged a gold-leaf electroscope at a distance, rendered a screen of zinc sulphate phosphorescent, made impressions on photographic plates wrapped in black paper, and proved the spontaneous release of heat from the marvelous substance.
The enthusiasm aroused by that evening had its repercussion on the morrow : all London wanted to see the parents of radium. �Professor and Madame Curie� were invited to dinners and banquets.
