Faraday to Hugh Welch Diamond   29 May 1855¹

Royal Institution | 29 May 1855

My dear Sir

I am greatly obliged to you for the copy of Davy’s letter[.] It is just his hand writing when I knew him which however was not until 9 years after in 1812. I think - It is really very interesting to see how thoroughly his thought & propositions anticipates the Museum as they seem to be carr[y]ing it out both in Jermyn St & the Society of Arts.

Ever Truly Yours | M. Faraday
