Faraday to William Thomson   14 June 18471

R Institution | 14 June 1847

My dear Sir

I received & thank you very much for the papers2, but the xs and ys for which you earnestly look are quite beyond me - still I can enjoy it somewhat & again thank you. When you come our way pray look at our apparatus but you will find generally that it is a continual make shift. At Oxford3 you will perhaps see Mr Walkers & it is very good & perfect in its kind4. I have not seen the Pisa Journal5 if you should have it with you at Oxford I should like to look at it[.]

Ever Truly Yours | M. Faraday

Wm Thomson Esq | &c &c &c
