 Dear Sir Frederick Bramwell, Wednesday, nth April, i892. 



Mv mother, Lady Bowman, desires me to acknowledge the receipt of your 

 letter, enclosing the cojiy of a Resolution passed at a meeting of tlie Board of 

 Manat'ers of the Royal Institution, held on Monday last. Tiie testimony borne 

 by many friends to the Affectionate regard, no let^s than to the high isteem, in which 

 they held my dear father, helps greatly to soften the blow which has fallen upon 

 us and we are further consoled in tlie memory of the peaceful death which 

 ended, and seemed to complete, his active and useful life. His services to the 

 Royal Institution were a source of very great pleasure to himself, and we are ghid 

 to know that they were appreciated by his colleagues. You will pU ase do my 

 mother the favour of conveying t<» the Managers her most grateful acknowledg- 

 menta for the Resolution which has been placed u[ion the minutes. 



Believe me, very truly yours, 



W. J'aglt Bowman.
