Faraday to James Timmins Chance   17 January 1861

[Royal Institution embossed letterhead] | 17 Jany 1861

My dear Sir

Can you favour me so much as to accept Monday the 28th of this month for my visit to Birmingham. I cannot come at the end of the week or of any week & if I come next Monday I must return during the night - that I may start off during the Tuesday into Norfolk¹[.]

I think you ought to write to the TH about your workmen²[.] I concede your proposition as most reasonable[.]

Ever Yours | M. Faraday
