Dear Sir

I regret I could not see you – I send a note for Arago2 but am not able to work or think much[.] Shall you be back in London in the Spring? If you return I should be happy to see you - & if as the Marquess hints you could give us a Friday evening in the season I should be very glad3[.]

Your faithful Servant | M. Faraday
