Faraday to Richard Taylor   24 December 1850

Royal Institution, | Dec. 24, 1850.

My dear Sir,

I have just received the inclosed letter¹; and though I have not had time to consider the view experimentally, I think it such an important contribution to the philosophy of magnetic and diamagnetic bodies, and am, as always, so anxious to establish the date of a new theory or fact, that I send it to you at once for publication if you think fit. I have left it almost in the author’s language, that I might not misstate his view.

Ever, my dear Sir, | Very truly yours, | M. Faraday

Richard Taylor, Esq., | &c. &c.
