Sir,

Considering that a club established upon principles agreeable to the nature of the plan proposed, would be very likely to advance the cause of art, I should be proud to have my name placed among the original members of such a society2.

I have the honor to be, | Sir, | Your obedient | Humble servant, | James Ward

To M. Faraday Esqr | &c &c &c
