Faraday to Richard Hollier   30 May 18371

R Institution | 30 May, 1837

Dear Hollier

Edward [Magrath] is quite willing & anxious that you should stand in the character we decided upon, will submit to our judgement on the matter, and will do nothing but my direction whilst the matter is in your hands[.] I am not quite sure that I mentioned what I think important as a principle namely that if through death, other inability, or any other cause, the contribution of any one of the three should past to Louisa then the other two are to make it up, by equal portions from each. You are the fit person to be the receiver from the brothers & the agent of conveyance to Louisa2[.]

Ever Truly Yours | M. Faraday

R. Hollier Esq | &c &c &c


Address: Richd Hollier Esq | &c &c &c | 12 Winchester St | Broad Street | City

Unidentified.
Louisa Magrath. Sister of Edward Magrath. See Magrath's 1861 will in Principal Registry of the Family Division of the High Court.
