Faraday to Sarah Faraday   18 February 1863¹

Dungeness, Wednesday: February 13 [sic], 1863.

Dearest,- Here at the lighthouse at ten o’clock P.M., all successful so far, but when you will get this I do not know. I shall put it in the post to-morrow. It is now bedtime, and as we have made our observations here pretty well, I shall be able to start to-morrow for Dover. The weather is very good for us here, and I hope to be home on Friday; perhaps in the middle of the day. Remember me; I think as much of you as is good for either you or me. We cannot well do without each other. But we love with a strong hope of love continuing ever, in which hope my dear Jeannie joins us. My love to you both,

Ever yours | M. Faraday
