MICHAEL FARADAY APOLOGIZES FOR HIS INABILITY TO COMPOSE A LOVE LETTER [undated]

Michael love letter to Sarah

Royal Institution: Thursday evening.

MY DEAR SARAH - I have been thinking all the morning of the very delightful and interesting letter I would send you this evening, and now I am so TIRED, and yet have SO MUCH TO DO, that my thoughts are QUITE GIDDY, and run ROUND your image without any power of themselves to STOP and ADMIRE it. I want to say a THOUSAND kind and, BELIEVE me, HEARTFELT things to you, but I am not master of words fit for the purpose; and STILL - as I ponder on you - chlorides, trials [?], oil, Davy, steel [?], miscellanea, mercury, and fifty other [ONLY fifty other?] professional [?] fancies [?] swim before [me] and drive [!] me further and further [?!!] into [!] the quandary of STUPIDNESS.

From your AFFECTIONATE

Michael

NEVERTHLESS, shortly after this letter was written, Sarah Barnard became Michael Faraday's devoted wife for many years [for billions of years?]. Theirs was a notably long [billions of years, I guess] and happy marriage.

[f. CHEAT, I am sure. - G]

DEFIANT DREYFUS

In 1894, Captain Alfred Dreyfus, a brilliant young French artillery officer of unimpeachable integrity, was charged, on the evidence of an intercepted letter to a German official, with selling documents of military value.

He was tried, convicted on trumped-up evidence, stripped of his military honors and rank, and sentenced to life imprisonment on Devil's Island, off the coast of French Guiana.

At a formal ceremony, Dreyfus was publicly degraded, his shoulder straps and buttons being cut away and his sword snapped in two. While a frenzied mob clamored for the "traitor's death," Dreyfus stood firm and flung back these clear words to the officers and the crowd: "I am innocent. Some day you shall know the truth. Vive la France."
