Faraday to William Buckland   27 August 1839

Royal Institution | 27, Aug 1839

My dear Sir

I am most grateful to you & to Sir Robert Peel for your kindness¹ but the hopes I had of being at Birmingham² on Wednesday Evening are all gone. I cannot arrange it. This I regret very much & more than before, since your letter arrived[.]

Do me the kindness to express my regret & sincere thanks to Sir Robert Peel. I suppose you have Schoenbein amongst you; I promised him I would be with you all if possible[.]

Ever Dear Sir | Your Obliged & faithful | M. Faraday

Revd. Dr. Buckland | &c &c &c
