The Green | Hampton Court | 25 July 1859.
My dear Sir Charles
Having come to a conclusion respecting the lighting of picture galleries by gas and presented our report to the Lords of the Privy council I now send you a copy1. It will answer the enquiries in your letter2 as far as I can at present answer them (for as to the special action you refer to they would require long & laborious investigation) & the answer will be the better for being the joint conclusion of those whose names are appended to the Report[.]
Ever My dear Sir Charles | Your Very faithful | Servant | M. Faraday
