Faraday to John Barlow   27 June 1848

R Institution | 27 June 1848

Dear Barlow

Herewith a note of Newshams1 estimate for certain repairs. I have numbered the points I would recommend to the Managers. The Hall will probably want painting next year so I have thought house cleaning would do for it this year. On a piece of paper is a note for a motion if you approve2 - and also one for the holidays of the Porters &c3.

I expect we shall return about Thursday fortnight4 i.e if I can clear off the giddiness:- which threatens me a good deal this morning[.]

Ever Yours | M. Faraday
