Faraday to Angela Georgina Burdett-Coutts   23 February 18491

Royal Institution | 23 Feby 1849.

My dear Miss Coutts

The moment our Managers attention was called to the subject last Monday they resolved that our Lady Members should have the right of bringing their two friends to the reserved seats at any hour on the Friday Evening2. I am anxious to say this to you for I made one mistake to a Lady and I called upon you about another or what I feared was another and am glad to have this mode of clearing them all away[.]

Ever Very Truly Yours | M. Faraday

This letter is black-edged. See letter 2153.
This resolution was not minuted in RI MM, 19 February 1849, 10: 161-4.
