George Biddell Airy to Faraday   c September 1834

Observatory Cambridge [MS torn] 34 [MS torn]

My dear Sir

When I troubled you abou<<t>> dry rot, I had not the least notion that the process was patent - if I had I should not have trespassed so much upon your time. I shall (when I have an opportunity) take measures for obtaining from the patentees such wood as I shall want.

I trouble you with a few papers - and I send copies of my published Volumes of Observations for the Library of the Royal Institution1.

I am my dear Sir | Very truly yours | G.B. Airy


Address: Michael Faraday Esqre

See RI MM, 3 November 1834, 8: 211 which notes Airy's presentation of six volumes of observations made at the Cambridge Observatory.
