From George Biddell Airy   1857 March 3

Royal Observatory, Greenwich | London, SE. [printed] | 1857 March 3

My dear Sir

There is a branch of Galvanic science, which seems now to be growing into very large proportions, and with which I have no practical acquaintance whatever, namely that of induced galvanism.¹

Shall you be giving any series of lectures, in which the apparatus for illustrating induction will necessarily be upon the table? If so, I should be glad to have your permission to attend a lecture, with the hope of perhaps picking up a few additional notions from you at the end of it.

I am, my dear Sir, | Faithfully yours | G B Airy
