From Ferdinand von Mueller to the Victorian Institute of Surveyors   [Dec 1894]

[The Hon Secretary read a letter from Baron von Mueller offering the society a number of recent volumes of the proceedings of the Royal Colonial Institute and allied publications. He (the hon secretary) had replied to Baron von Mueller thanking him for his offer and accepting the publications, and they had now arrived at the institute. A vote of thanks was passed to Baron von Mueller for his donation.]

Letter not found. The text given here is from 'Donation from Baron von Mueller', in the report of the meeting of the Institute of Surveyors held on 3 January 1895 (Argus, 4 January 1895, p. 7). The previous meeting of the Institute was held on 28 September 1894. The latest likely date of M's letter is December 1894, allowing time for the subsequent correspondence described in the report.
