Faraday to Grant David Yeats   10 October 18221

<qr>Royal Institution, | October 10, 1822

I have examined the water attentively, and find no iron in it. It is by no means abundant in saline matter, containing only a little muriate and sulphat of soda and lime. There is no carbonic acid or magnesia in it2.

I am, &c. &c.
