Faraday to Dominique Jean François Arago   30 September 1834

Royal Institution | 30 Septr 1834

Dear Sir

Herewith I send you a piece of the heavy glass. I have but little left but I hope this will answer your purpose[.]

I send also copies of such of my papers as I can find. I am very sorry that I cannot procure and send with them copies of my first and second series of experimental researches¹ especially as in them I ventured to touch upon your exceedingly beautiful discovery of the magnetism &c of bodies in motion². I am in hopes however that I did on a former occasion send you copies of these papers.

I am now going to send to the Mint and hope by the evening to be able to tell you what will be the best course of proceeding there[.]

I am | My dear Sir | Your faithful and | sincere admirer | M. Faraday

M Arago | &c &c &c
