Faraday to Cornelia Augusta Hewett Crosse   9 June 18561

Royal Institution | 9 June 1856

My dear Mrs Cross[e]

I send you the ticket2 and hope you will be in some degree interested - as I shall feel much honored by your presence. I do hope to be at Cheltenham3 part of the week & have received some kind invitations there4 - but cannot tell how events will turn up[.]

Ever | Your faithful Servant | M. Faraday
