James Clark to Faraday   18 August 1859

22 L. Brook Street. Grosvenor Square. W. | Aug. 18 - 1859

Dear Mr. Faraday,

I hope you mean to attend the meeting of the British Association at Aberdeen, and that you will pay me a visit at Birk Hall. A few days on Dee side will have you for the meeting, and I promise to shew you some fine mountain scenery. Sir B. Brodie is coming to Birkhall to spend a few days before the meeting, &, if convenient to both, you might come together, and I will give you instruction how to perform the journey most conveniently.

I called this afternoon at the Royal Institution but found that you had left, and was expected again on Saturday1 - on that day I am going to Osborne, otherwise I would have endeavoured to see you.

Very faithfully | Yours | Jas Clark

That is 20 August 1859.
