Faraday to William Robert Grove   28 December 1849

Private

Royal Institution | 28 Decr. 1849.

My dear Grove

Brodie tells me that you must have mistaken him in supposing that he could obtain no opinion from me regarding his lectures1. What he intended to convey (I cannot answer for his words) was that he could obtain no advice or opinion from me at the last i.e. at the time of your dinner conversations as I had declined having any thing more to say. This clears up what seemed to be a contradiction & I promised to speak to you about it[.]

Ever Yours | M. Faraday
