Thomas Young to Faraday   7 January 1829

Dear Sir

Pray tell me in a day or two, how much you think is at present owing for the expenses of the Glass Committee: and how much more is likely to be wanted in order to complete the experiments already begun: as to any further proceedings hereafter you can probably form no opinion of what might be eligible until they are completed: I only wish to know about the extreme of the responsibilities which are actually to be met either by the effects of the Board of Longitude or by the Royal Society.

Believe me Dear Sir | Very truly Yours | Thomas Young

9 Park Square | Wednesday 7 Jan

M. Faraday Esq

Address: Michael Faraday Esq, F.R.S. | Royal Institution | Albemarle Street
