Interesting Marie Curie autograph letter signed, dated 6 November 1910 from Paris on ''Faculte des Sciences de Paris'' letterhead, regarding construction of the famous Curie Radium Institute. Following the death of her husband Pierre Curie in 1906, Marie took his place as Professor of General Physics in the Faculte des Sciences, the first woman to hold this position. An onslaught of slanderous articles were written about her at this time, particularly as she began an affair with another scientist who was married. Letter, written in French, is addressed to the director of the newspaper ''Les Temps'' and reads: ''An article concerning the Radium Institute which recently appeared in the last issue of the 'Cri de Paris' has just been forwarded to me. The information contained in this article is completely false. I have not as yet received either the plans or the estimates for this institute, nor have I made any of the demands mentioned in the article. I am hoping that this article, obviously conceived with malicious intent, will not be accepted by the press in a manner likely to contribute to the propagation of such a myth.'' Letter, measuring 5.25'' x 8.5'' on one page, has minor toning, else near fine condition.
