12/1/94.

This day, dear Mr Macdonald, I met Mr F. J. Hobson, who seems inclined to join as life member our RGSA. He resides at the Australian Club, so perhaps you will kindly call on this liberal Gentleman. He is engaged in large pastoral pursuits, and therefore has an interest in our geographic efforts.

With friendship always your

Ferd. von Mueller

My cough is still very bad, otherwise I would have called on you.
