Henry Clutterbuck to Faraday   15 September 1852¹

My dear Sir

Allow me to begin my note, with expressing the pleasure I feel in hoping that it leaves you in good Health & strength.

I reply to your query respecting Mr Monpriut² I can only say I remember him as an old pupil, but I have not had the pleasure of knowing more of him. Very shortly after your note reached me, I received the enclosed from that gentleman, and which I send you for your perusal.

Believe me, my dear | Sir, one of your very | sincere well-wishers & admirers | H. Clutterbuck

New Bridge Street | Sept 15, 1852.

Address: Mr Faraday.
