Dear Dr. Lederberg:

ot. Your letter of birthday congratulations

—_—_— to Dr. Corner arrived on Friday, in ample time

for me to read it (I hope that you, he and the
Postal Service will not mind my reading his mail)
at the general business meeting. The night be-
fore we had had at the dinner an informal pre-
sentation to Dr. Corner, which was attended by
his son and grandsons. It was an agreeable oc-
ecasion, at which Dr. Corner himself spoke well,
warmly, and strongly. I know that he appreciated
your thoughtful remembrance of him, and am sure
that you will be hearing from him personally.

We look forward to seeing you here in
Philadelphia at some meeting of the Society in
the near future.

Very Aaithfully yours,

 

Executivé Officer and
Librarian
