Faraday to William Jerdan   5 June 1828

R Institution | Thursday

Dear Sir

I send you Mr Curtis’1 account unaltered2[.] According to my notions I should have put the matter down to the pencil mark into half a dozen lines. But you will be a better judge than I am of what is proper[.]

Yours Very Truly | M. Faraday

Jerdan Esq
