Angela Georgina Burdett Coutts to Faraday   24 October 1846

Bedford Hall | Brighton | Oct 24 / 46

My dear Sir,

I received your kind reply¹ quite safe but I have been moving about & my letters following, which has occasioned a delay in my receiving your very obliging offer to speak to any one, upon the subject of the Cheques, from my Bank, but I need not I find avail myself of it, at present at least, for as Mr Brande & yourself agree as to the safest number, of the specimens sent, I think that gives us all the security we can have in that way - I, consider you kind. I am sure likewise your kindness replying to my enquiry as strictly private & friendly, which I always intended, & I am obliged by your taking it as intended, for I can easily form a guess, you could not afford your time to such & similar questions & how liable you must be to be asked them.

I am | Yours sincerely | A.G. Burdett Coutts

You will be glad to hear our mutual friend, Mr Masquierer², is well, & that Mrs Masquierer³ about whom he has been so very anxious, is improved in health.
