3/12/86
We ought to congratulate ourselves, dear Mr Macdonald, to the high honor, which our Society has attained through the grace of her Majesty.1 It was very good of you, to take action on this happy event in your usual resolute way. I will be happy, to attend at the meeting on Monday at you[r] hospitable house. You will likely have received the papers from the townclerk of Collingwood, which may augment our iss[ue] of antarctic Documen[ts] through the R.S.2
Regardfully you[r]
Ferd von Mueller
