Dear Sir

On the 9th March I wrote to you, & informed you that the Photographic Society of Scotland had voted their gold medal to you, as a mark of their respect, & of their gratitude to you as the great discoverer of the Photographic art -

I at the same time in the name of the Society expressed a hope that you might be able to do them the honour of joining them at their meeting on the 12 April, when the medal would be ready for your acceptance -

I took the liberty of asking you to let me know when & where a deputation of the Society might be permitted to wait on you to present the medal, in the event of your not being able to come to our meeting -

Up to this date I have not received any reply to my letter, I am therefore afraid that you may not have received it - & think it right to to [sic] send a second communication -1

I am Dear Sir Your faithful servant
Horatio Ross
