533 Elizabeth Street, Sydney, 

 5th March, 1888. 

 To C. S. Wilkinson, Esq., e.l.s., p.g.s., 



President of the Eoyal Society of New South Wales. 

 My dear Sir, 



I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter and 

 medal, conveying to me the Society's award of the Clarke Medal for this 

 year. In thanking the Society for this distinguished mark of their 

 estimation, I feel myself quite inadequate to express my sense of the 

 honour thus conferred upon me. 



If any services that I have rendered to Science were deserving of a 

 reward this more than amply satisfies my greatest anticipations, and I 

 trust it will be a new stimulus to exertion. 



I regret exceeding that my present state of health prevents me from 

 taking a more active part in the labours of the Society, but I have every 

 hope and confidence that I shall yet be able to labour for its interests, 

 and I shall ever consider myself honoured by being associated even in 

 the humblest way with its labours. 



Pray convey my warmest thanks to the members of the Council, and 

 believe me, Mr. President 



Yours very faithfully, 



J. E. TENISON-WOODS. 



Mr. C. S. Wilkinson, f.g.s., f.l.s., President, then read his 

 address. 



A vote of thanks was passed to the retiring President, and Sir 

 Alfred Roberts was installed as President for the ensuing year.
