 The Secretary of the Royal Institution. 

 Dear Sir, 



Some time ago I have received from you at first the information that 

 the Royal Institution of Great Britain has elected me an Honorary Member 

 of the Institution, and a little later on also the diploma of this Membership, 

 as well as a volume of the Proceeding for the year 1909, etc. 



I must ask you to excuse me, that my health has prevented me to send 

 you before an acknowledgment of my reception of your letter and the diploma. 

 Then I must ask you, on my behalf, kindly to present my respects, and to 

 express my most hearty thanks for the great honour conferred upon me to the 

 President of the Royal Institution, His Grace The Duke of Northumberland, 

 K.G. P.O. D.C.L. F.R.S., as well as to the Society. 



To have been elected an Honorary IMember of this illustrious Institution 

 that has reckoned since the start and still reckons on the list such a number 

 of most prominent investigators and benefactors of mankind, is an exquisite 

 honour, that I appreciate as the highest distinction and courtesy paid, not 

 only to me myself, but primarily also to the University of Norway. 



Yours respectfully, 

 (Signed) W. C. Brogger, Ph.D. LL.D. D.Sc. F.R.S , etc. 



{Professor at the University, Kristiania, Norway.)
