Much as I appreciate this invitation -- and the courtesy of extending it at an early date -- I find that I cannot possibly work it into my schedule. Please convey my thanks to the committee concerned for the consideration shown me, as well as my regret that I am unable to accept. Thank you also for writing to me personally on behalf of the council. With all best wishes, I am Sincerely".
