Does not think that RH would be satisfied with the position of Assistant Secretary of the R.S.L., as it is largely clerical, and would not allow much time for chemical or photographical experiments. JH is not aware whether there is a position available at the Royal Institution, but would be willing to speak to Michael Faraday.
