Letter not found.
MS is record of text of a telegram. The telegram is clearly a reply to M's telegram of 18 August 1885 sending greetings on behalf of the Society's Victorian Branch to the New South Wales Branch, the annual meeting of which was to be held that afternoon. The telegram has therefore been dated to the following day.
