Jacob Herbert to Faraday   6 April 1844

Trinity House, London | 6th April 1844.

My dear Sir,

The Board has directed¹ me to transmit to you the enclosed copy of a letter received from Mr. Neale, Principal Keeper of the Light House at St. Catherines²;- and I am at the same time to enquire whether you consider the probable effect and advantages of his suggestion would be similar to those of the deflecting plate at the funnel joints of the main chimney, which you advert to in your letter of the 15th Ultimo³.

I remain | My dear Sir | Your very faithful Servant | J. Herbert

M. Faraday, Esq.
