The Consultation Letters of Dr William Cullen (1710-1790) at the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh
Letter from Henry Cullen to Archibald Cullen, requesting that he make a short transcript of a letter 'lying on the shelve next the window' and send it off before nine, adding 'dont tell the Dr'. Another hand, presumably that of Archibald, adds a response explaining that he did not receive the 'epistle from you' until after going out for supper, before adding a very contracted summary of the letter in question.
