Dear General Hills, 



From the letter of Mr. Young, Assistant Secretary, dated December 4, 

 I was mightily pleased to learn of my election as an Honorary Member of the 

 Royal Institution. I have been privileged to attend two public lectures and 

 the after meetings in the Royal Institution, and I have admired unreservedly 

 its policies and purposes. The Royal Institution has been singularly effective 

 in research ; and I am in full sympathy with the idea that whatever in 

 Science is worth discovering and preserving should be given to the people ; for 

 example, through the medium of lectures and otherwise. 



I have received the Diploma of Membership. 



Will you kindly express to the Board of Managers my acknowledgment of 

 the honor and pleasure which they have given me ? 



Let us hope that the year 1920 will witness the solution of many important 

 world and national problems now pending. 



Yours sincerely, 



W. W. CAMPBELL. 

 General Edmond H. HiUs, D.Sc. F.R.S. etc.
