Faraday to Samuel Thomas Davenport   4 March 18461

R Institution | 4 March 1846

Sir

I am sorry that I cannot be with you but the great occupation of my time by questions & subjects that come to me in my duty at the Royal Institution really prevent me from attending to any that occur elsewhere - & it is an absolute matter of relief to me to find that they go in part to other places as I then feel relieved from them[.]

I am Sir | Your Very Obedient Servant | M. Faraday

S.T. Davenport Esq | &c &c &c
