Robert Peel to Faraday   17 March 18461

Whitehall | March 17

Dear Sir,

I am much obliged to you for the Memoir on Electricity2. I had heard from some of my scientific friends of your recent Experimental Researches into that most important Element and of their Success.

It will be gratifying to me when I have a few hours of Comparative Leisure to read the results of your observation and inquiry in a memoir presented to me by yourself as a token of your personal Esteem.

Yours faithfully Robert Peel

Michael Faraday Esq
