Faraday to Frederick Augustus Abel   May 1852¹

I hope you feel yourself happy and comfortable in your arrangements at the Academy², and have cause to be pleased with the change. I was ever very kindly received there, and that portion of regret which one must ever feel in concluding a long engagement would be in some degree lessened with me by hearing that you had reason to be satisfied with your duties and their acceptance. - Ever very truly yours, M. Faraday
