Dear Sir

I have your note and have asked the Cabinet maker to give me the price of the two arm chairs2. Whether I shall be able to order them without waiting for a Meeting of Managers or whether I must wait for their decision I cannot tell until I receive & consider his return. It shall not be forgotten[.]

Ever faithfully Yours | M. Faraday
