My dear Sir

I am making some experiments in Electro-magnetism, and the large circular flat Electro-magnet made for my Patent of 1841 <2> would be very useful to me to verify some of the results. If it be still in your possession I will ask you to lend it to me, and it shall be returned whenever you wish it.

Yours very truly

C. Wheatstone

H. F. Talbot Esqr
