Faraday to Edward Everett   14 April 1845

Royal Institution | 14 April 1845

Dear Sir

At last I have obtained a good opinion on Bromine. Its present selling price is 3/- per ounce. There is not a large demand for it because there is not much in the market[.] Probably if the supply were greater then uses [other] than the few now known would arise[.] Medical men are at present rather afraid of it[.]

I am | My dear Sir | Your faithful Servant | M. Faraday

His Excellency | The American Ambassador | &c &c &c
