Robert Murray to Faraday   15 December 18561

43 Piccadilly | Dec 15 - 1856

Dear Sir

I am about asking a favour & I hope you will not think I am taking too great a liberty. I wanted my son who is in the business with us to hear your Lectures2. The favour I want is to ask is if you could kindly give me an admission for him to go in the gallery[.] I shall esteem it a great favour hoping you are quite well & will pardon my troubling you

I remain your Obedient Servant | Rob. Murray
