James Clark to Faraday   26 February 18491

Brook Street | Monday evening

My Dear Dr. Faraday,

Although I have no doubt the Prince expressed to yourself his great satisfaction with your lecture2, I cannot resist telling you how much he expressed himself to me pleased with the manner as well as the substance of your lecture. Indeed so much was he pleased with it, I expect he will come occasionally to the lectures at the Institution.

You managed the whole thing admirably. Your peroration I thought particularly happy.

Very truly yours | Ja. Clark

Dated on the basis of the reference to Faraday’s lecture.
