  " 
  Depuis 
  que 
  la 
  Societe 
  Geologique 
  de 
  Londres 
  m'a 
  fait 
  

   le 
  grand 
  honneur 
  de 
  me 
  decerner 
  la 
  medaille 
  de 
  Wollaston, 
  j'avais 
  

   le 
  desir 
  de 
  venir 
  personnellement 
  lui 
  exprimer 
  ma 
  vive 
  reconnais- 
  

   sance, 
  et 
  ces 
  jours-ci, 
  en 
  quittant 
  Paris, 
  j'avais 
  l'espoir 
  d'assister 
  a 
  

   la 
  seance 
  de 
  Mercredi 
  21. 
  

  

  ". 
  Malheureusement, 
  je 
  me 
  trouve 
  oblige 
  de 
  rentrer 
  sans 
  retard, 
  

   par 
  suite 
  de 
  devoirs 
  professionnels 
  a 
  remplir.

  regret 
  que 
  je 
  manque 
  de 
  si 
  peu 
  de 
  jours 
  le 
  

   plaisir 
  de 
  me 
  reunir 
  a

  permettre,

  de 
  vous 
  prier 
  

   d'etre 
  aupres 
  d'eux 
  l'interprete 
  de 
  mes

  sera 
  un 
  de- 
  

   dommagement
