Faraday to Juliet Pollock   11 March 1858

Royal Institution | 11 March 1858

My dear Mrs. Pollock,

I return with many thanks & carefully the pages you lent me. I have read them with great interest. It is wonderful to me to see the enlarged & meditative mind possessed by the writer in fields so different; it produces the conviction that in other fields the power must have been equally great. Her departure was a great loss to others but not to herself1[.]

Ever Your Grateful Servant | M Faraday

A reference to the death of Maria Julia Herries. See letters 3325 and 3376.
