R Institution | 11 April 1839

My dear Sir

I shall be very happy to see you on Monday² at 9 o clk & will then talk with you on the points in your letter[.]

Many thanks for your kind offer of the loan of the large battery but I shall be unable to accept it. I have now both hands & head crammed over full & not time for one half of what ought to be done[.]

Ever Truly Yours | M. Faraday
