Prof. Franklin W. Hooper,
502 Fulton St.,
Brooklyn, N. Y.

My dear prof. Hooper:-

Your kind favor of the 20th inst. has been received and I want to thank you most heartily for your kind offices in connection with the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences.

It will give me great pleasure to give a series of five lectures, as mentioned in the invitation, and I beg to take this means of expression my appreciation of the honor conferred upon me by yourself and the Brooklyn Institute. 

I shall probably be in the field until the middle or latter part of November, I therefore hope that it may be your pleasure to begin the series either in January or February, as such a course would allow for any accident that might occur in the field, or for any extension in my proposed work which would detain me until the early part of December. 

It will give me pleasure to submit a list of the lectures, and the way in which they are to be delivered, during the next few days. Until then, believe me,

Sincerely and gratefully yours,
(G.H.P.)
