Faraday to James Walker   20 May 1850

Royal Institution | 20 May 1850

My dear Sir

I was so hurried at the receipt of your last two notes that I had not time to answer them. Let me now thank you for all your kindness in your earnest endeavours to supply me with the models1. The three of the Edystone are very interesting but it was out of my power to go into their merits[.]

Ever Yours truly | M. Faraday

Jas Walker Esq | &c &c &c

In his third lecture, “A Lamp” of his course of six lectures “Upon some points of domestic chemical philosophy” delivered on 11 May 1850 Faraday showed a model of a lighthouse. See Faraday’s notes in RI MS F4 J19, p.11.
