I beg You will be so good as return me
the Case of Miss A.B, which I lately laid before You - I had
a Letter from her Father t'other day wherein he says "A.B.
"never got any Opiates or any thing else for Sleeping, having
"sleeped remarkably well considering the distemper, which
"its believed is the great Cause that matters have not arisen
"to a greater height" -- If any thing further occurs to You
upon the Case from this information, it will be Obliging
if You will suggest it.
I would have waited of You myself, but I am
Obliged to go to the Country to day. I am very respectfully
Sir
Your most Obedient Humble Servant
