Faraday to James Richard Clark   27 April 1835

Mr. Faraday presents his compliments to Mr. Clarke, and regrets that he cannot be at the Committee1 on Tuesday (to- morrow); it is the day on which he is obliged by his duties to be at Woolwich, and though he does not leave town until after the hour mentioned, yet the preparation required demands his previous time and attention.

This was an Admiralty committee to investigate Kyan's process to prevent dry rot. Faraday gave evidence to the Committee on 4 May 1835, Parliamentary Papers, 1835 <(367)> xlviii, pp.13-4.
