Faraday to Percy Drummond   20 October 1836

Royal Institution | 20 Oct. 1836

Dear Sir

I send you the bill of current expences before I leave town I have put in the other bills & as I send you a receipt for the whole as well as the receipts for the main sums you have two vouchers for payment. Your observations yesterday reminds me that before I shall receive these sums for monies already laid out I must give a third receipt at the Tower so that actually the payment of the larger portion will be acknowledge[d] three times over[.] This I presume will create no confusion, but it would be a very unsafe practice between man & man in the world[.]

Ever Dear Sir | Very Truly Yours | M. Faraday

Coll. Drummond | &c &c &c
