George Gregory to Faraday   15 April 1847

31 Weymouth Street | Thursday April 15 - 1847 -

My dear Sir

This Day's post has brought me a long letter from Signor Antonio Lombardi dated Modena 5: April '471[.]

He acknowledges the receipt of the Vaccine Tubes all in perfect order - Assurances that the English Lymph has been tried under the observation of the Doctors composing the Vaccine Board of the Modena States - and lastly that the Inoculations have been perfectly successful in every instance, producing large & well developed results.

He communicates to me (in very flattering terms) the grateful thanks of the Duke of Modena's2 Minister of Public Instruction3 - & all parties appear to be pleased[.]

I shall, of course, acknowledge, without delay, these flattering encomium.

I thought you would take an interest in the result, & have therefore gone into the Details.

Believe me | My Dear Sir | Ever Very Truly Yours | George Gregory

31 WS. April 15
