Faraday and Sarah Faraday to Caroline Deacon   After 1847

My dear Caroline

Just for a token of affection I fill up this page – I hear of you and your husband & the little one and your movements & troubles & pleasures & seem to know as much as your most effectual correspondents through their kindness & yours but I come in with a scratch now & then & hope you will accept it on my part as if it were a most earnest epistle. It is as true to the feeling as the longest letter would be. Hoping that you are all happy in your house & in yourselves I am My dear Caroline Very Affectionately Yours M. Faraday
