Asks DG to respond to a note from George Rümker.
Received his letter of the 17th today. Does not think he can change his mind about resigning from the council.
His library is in chaos at the moment due to house decoration, so he is unable to lay his hands on the note about Eilhard Mitscherlich. Gives a long survey of the work of Mitscherlich and states why in his opinion he should receive a medal.
