Faraday to Henry Bence Jones   15 February 18591

[Royal Institution embossed letterhead] | Tuesday Morning | 15 Feby

My dear friend

My cold with sore throat is just now so heavy that I durst not venture out to you, so I send Jeannie, because I think I ought not to defer the matter of Miss Hornblowers note, which is in the 3 & 4th pages. I send what she says. I know its utter inadequacy; but if you will let me double it, I shall be very glad.

My cold is going on all right.

Yours Ever | M. Faraday

Dr. B. Jones | &c &c &c
