Faraday to Augusta Ada Lovelace   26 October 1844

Royal Institution | 26 Octr. 1844

Dear Lady

The day after I had written to you¹ I received your second very kind note². I hope you will always so bear with me & feel for me as your letter shewed you were willing to do in this case: A second volume of my researches³ is just out which with the first⁴ I purpose sending in a day or two to St. James Square[.] Give them a value by accepting them from me - all such marks come with a very different feeling now to what they would have had formerly for there is now a different communion between us - before it would have been with much of formal courtesy, now it is with deep respect[.]

Ever Your grateful & | Obliged Servant | M. Faraday

Lady Lovelace
