Faraday to Sydney Smirke   26 July 1856

Royal Institution | 26 July 1856.

Dear Sir

I arrived in town late last night & leave town for Paris early on Tuesday morning¹. I am so occupied that I cannot see Mr. De la Rue before my return from Paris - and so am unable to answer your letter at present for I could give no opinion before talking with him[.]

Ever Truly Yours | M. Faraday
