Faraday to Jean-Baptiste André Dumas   29 June 1857

Royal Institution | 29 June 1857

My dear friend

Dr. Tyndall is about to visit Paris and as one whom I esteem highly both for his personal qualities and his devotion and services to science I give him this letter of introduction to you:- though indeed I think he will be sufficiently well known to you by what he has done already as hardly to need it at my hand. But the occasion gives me an opportunity of calling myself to your remembrance and though you have given me plenty of proofs that I am not out of it when there is need still I like to be there also at other times.

My dear Wife joins me in kindest remembrances to you and Madame Dumas[.]

Ever Your Obliged & faithful friend | M. Faraday

a Monsieur | Monsieur Dumas | Secretaire | &c &c &c
