Frederick Augustus Abel to Faraday   7 November 18591

Rl Arsenal, Woolwich | 7th Novr 1859.

My dear Sir,

I will not fail to bear young Mr Vincent in mind. I was in hopes, on two occasions, to have procured an engagement for him & am very sorry that I was unsuccessful.

I called upon you with my Brother in Law Mr Frederick Field - who is just now staying with me and was desirous to have the pleasure of seeing you again, on his return from Chili.

I am, my dear Sir | yours sincerely | F.A. Abel

Dr. Faraday | &c &c &c
