Faraday to Henri Victor Regnault¹   28 October 1862

Royal Institution | 28 October 1862

My dear Mr. Regnault.

Your kind present of the volume on the steam engine² gives me the privilege of returning my most hearty thanks - and the opportunity of saying how much I value such a mark of attention from one who has the right to confer honor by his attention upon any one who respects science & loves it advancement. What a cause of rejoicing - it is to us & above all to me that that awful fall³ is succeeded by such a recovery with the full restoration of all that you possessed before[.]

Ever My dear M. Regnault | Your admiring friend | M. Faraday
