Extract
I am grateful for the honour that is done to me by the invitation to give the first H. B. Acton Lecture. We are all grateful for an occasion to honour Professor Acton. It is disappointing, however understandable, and fitting to his modesty, that he has not felt able to be here to receive our gratitude.
