Royal Institution | 31 Aug 1858
Sir,
A letter1 was left at the Institution2 by post for you on Saturday morning3 on Her Majestys Service, I opened it and found a cheque4 in it and sent it in the afternoon to Mr. Francis, all here are very glad to hear that you are so strong and in good health. We hope you will long continue so. Every thing is very quiet here at present and we are getting on with the repairs.5
Your Humble Servant at all times, | C. Anderson
My dear Tyndall, as this is all the paper that can go, I take6 one side from Anderson just to shew myself. We all think of you and are very glad you are so strong.
Ever yours, | M. Faraday
