Melbourne, 19 Apr. 1894.

It affords me much pleasure to certify, that Mr T. S. Hart, M.A., is known to me as an accomplished Naturalist, who after extensive University-Studies has acquired also practical Field-Experiences in our Colony, and who has evinced an ardent interest in original and progressive researches. His excellent adress and his high character befit him additionally for any position as a teacher in the applied natural sciences at schools of mines or other practical Institutions.
