Faraday to an unidentified correspondent   22 December 1828

Royal Institution | Dec. 22 1828

Dear Sir

I beg to say that the Managers of the RI were so much obliged to you for your kindness that they would have resolved a vote of thanks to you from their board but that I objected and said that I knew it was your wish not to be recognised as giving any advice in this affair1[.] I wish to say this to you that you may know they are really grateful for your kindness though the formal expression of it is omitted.

I am Dear Sir | Your Very Obliged Servant | M. Faraday

Hence there is no indication in RI MM as to what this affair might have been.
