Prague, March 30th, 1906. 

 The Royal Bohemian Society of Sciences begs to 

 acknowledge with many thanks the kind invitation of 

 the American Philosophical Society of Philadelphia to 

 the celebration of the two-hundredth anniversary of 

 Benjamin Franklin's birth. 



Fully appreciating all the deserts of the Great Man 

 whose memory the American Philosophical Society is 

 going to honour, we regret deeply that none of our 

 members are able at this time of the year to take part 

 in the festivities personally. Still the Royal Bohemian 

 Society of Sciences has, in ordinary meeting on the 7th 

 inst., resolved unanimously to express our warmest sym- 

 pathy, and to add our heartfelt wishes that it may be 

 granted to the American Philosophical Society to cele- 

 brate many happy centennial returns of this solemn 

 festivity. 



For the Royal Bohemian Society of Sciences: 



Prof. Dr. V. E. Mourek, 



(Seal) General Secretary.
