Faraday to Peter Mark Roget   27 January 1832

R Institution | Jany 27th 1832

Dear Sir

Herewith you will receive copies of the bills that have been ordered for payment by the Council & sent as I understand to the Admiralty but of which they deny all knowledge1[.]

You will perceive they are of long standing & I hope you will be able to expedite them for Newman, the only one besides myself to whom Money is due wants his share of it[.]

Ever Dear Sir | Truly Yours | M. Faraday

Dr Roget | &c &c &c


Endorsement: Faraday about bills

See letter 528 and Roget to Barrow, 2 February 1832, PRO ADM1 / 4282 (Royal Society file). In this letter Roget enclosed copies of the bills and requested payment be made. Barrow's endorsement of this letter seems to have settled the matter: "Order payment of the bill. Their Lordships do not consider this expense in any way connected with the naval service and cannot take upon themselves to authorise as far as they are concerned the continuance of it JB".
