I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 10th instant1 requesting an interview with Mr Ramsay on business connected with your Department and in reply to inform you that such opportunity will be afforded to you when the present session of Parliament shall have been closed.
I have the honor to be,

Mr Ramsay is at present so very much engaged that he hopes Baron von Mueller will excuse him for not appointing a day for an interview.
