On headed notepaper, Philosophical Institution, 4 Queen Street, Edinburgh. - The Directors wish Lord Houghton to be informed that, at their meeting on the 21st, he was unanimously elected an Honorary Life Member of the Institution. There are very few such members: the Bishop of St. David's [Connop Thirlwall], Sir John Pakington, Sir David Brewster and 'one or two more'. Encloses a copy of the minutes of this meeting, and a life ticket. Is expecting a proof of Houghton's address, which he will send for final revision as soon as he receives it.
