Faraday to Henry Goadby   13 February 18361

R Institution | 13 Feby 1836

My dear Sir

I hope your friend was passed but being in the Lecture2 I did not receive your note until late[.]

Many thanks for your kindness in informing me of the date. I have fixed it for the 25 March as your desire. The title I suppose will be what you gave me On insect anatomy3[.]

Ever Dear Sir | Very Truly Yours | M. Faraday
