August Wilhelm Hofmann to Faraday   After 1846

R. College of Chemistry

My dear Sir

I am very anxious to hear an exposition of your recent great discoveries from your own lips. Could you favour me with an admission.

I am almost ashamed to add, that my assistant is also a beggar for the same favour.

I am, my dear Sir, | Yours very sincer[e]ly | A.W. Hofmann

Professor Faraday
