Dear Faraday
My friend the bearer of this Mr Wildy1 is very desirous of attending Mr Tyndal’s lecture tonight2. I told him he must not be surprised if he finds every ticket given away, but that he might take his chance of calling at the Institn. with this note from me & seeing if you could spare him a ticket. Excuse my giving you this trouble & send word vivâ voce that you have none left if that be the case[.]
ever truly yours | Cha Lyell
