Faraday to Juliet Pollock   6 January 1858

Royal Institution | 6 January 1858

My dear Mrs. Pollock

You will not I am sure judge me unkindly for not answering your letter & act before. I have been very busy and am not able to go on actively as I was accustomed to do in former times but I thank you very much and receive the book gratefully in remembrance of one who is worthy of being kept in remembrance by all who had the pleasure & honor of knowing her1[.]

I am glad to hear you have arrived in town safe and hope to call on you soon. If you have the opportunity call me to the remembrance of those who are at St. Juliens [sic]2.

Ever My dear Mrs. Pollock | Your faithful & grateful Servant | M. Faraday

A reference to the death of Maria Julia Herries. See letter 3325.
St Julians, near Sevenoaks, the seat of the Herries family.
