TALBOT8659

Dear M^r Talbot,

The Senatus of our University ¹ resolved to confer upon you the degree of Doctor of Laws ² at their Annual meeting for conferring Degrees in Arts which is held on the 21^st of next month ³ in the Victoria or Assembly Hall Castle Hill, at 12 o'clock.

I hope it will not be inconvenient for you to attend the meeting. It is a simple ceremony in which the Graduate has nothing to say.

I will meet you at any place and time you may appoint, and conduct you to the Hall.

I am, Dear M^r Talbot,
Ever Most Truly y^rs
D Brewster
