Faraday to Henry Bence Jones   11 March 1857

Wednesday Eveng | 11 March 1857

Dear friend

I write this note & bring it not expecting to find you. I returned alone from Brighton today and now come to ask you for something such as you gave me before. Last night my Stomach was thoroughly upset up & down - it has been pretty well during the day though with a feeling of weakness & tonight the sensation of heartburn & sickness returns so far as to bring me to you - for I have forgotten all you told me before. But if you are not at home - take no trouble tonight. A little dry toast & a little hot brandy & water with perhaps a little Carb Ammonia after a while if all is not quiet will I have no doubt do very well.

Ever Affectionately Yours | M. Faraday

Dr B Jones | &c &c &c
