My father desires me inform you that
Mr. Sanderson did not take the Bolus until ten
days after you saw him on account of his
Belly being rather open; that it had a good
effect upon his skin, & that his Rheumatic
Complaints are now almost entirely gone, but
his former Complaints have returned with rather
more violence than ever -- He has begun the
Nervous Infusion, but my father wishes to hear
from you by the first post, if you propose any
other think being tryed.
Sir I am
Your most humble Servant
