Faraday to Benjamin Abbott   8 August 1812

August 8th 1812.

Dear Abbott

Sorry am I to say that your arrangement will not coincide with my engagements for tomorrow but so it is[.] I cannot refrain from expressing my regret since I will assure what I must attend to is not so very pleasing as to engage earnestly my inclination but I hope shortly so to plan it as to have no let to your company here. I cannot notice more of your letter at present than the conclusion which I hope you believe is fully met by Yours Sincerely | M. Faraday
