It is with deep regret that we have
learned of the impossibility of your coming to
California to receive in person the Bruce Medal;
it would have been a pleasure to have placed that
in your own hands. But the deeper regret lies in
the fact that we shall not see you here among us,
where we might talk of many things; and especially
in that ill health prevents your taking so long a
journey.

You know, doubtless, that the award
of the Bruce Medal is made by the Directors of
the Astronomical Society of the Pacific on the
nomination of the Directors of—slx.^f the
observatories in several difj

Because our own position in ii
so largely impersonal, we fee
tending to you our sincere ai
lations on this fine recogni'
accomplished. In this I spe;
for all the officers of the i
very genuine appreciation of
active and valuable service
hope for renewed health and
successful investigation.
