Isambard Kingdom Brunel to Faraday   17 January 1825

Dear Sir

Mr W Hawes¹ and myself wish to attend your lectures on Chemistry[.] I should be much obliged to you to inform me when they begin or if begun what days and hours we must attend².

I am happy to say, this morning I have succeeded in making my vessels light and sound, after making continued and almost daily alterations and trials for the last four weeks - and unless some unforeseen and unlucky circumstance occurs I hope to be at work next week³.-

I remain Sir | Yours truly | I Brunel
