Letter for "Dr Douglas pro [for] Mr Richardson', who Cullen met and examined on the road to Kelso. Gives dietary and other directions for managing a stomach disorder resulting from 'marks of a weak nervous system', with two recipes. Obscure contraction after 'Mr' in the title to the recipe might be a clue to Mr Richardson's first-name {Malcolm?, Matthew?] which is otherwise untraced. | 16 March 1773 | |||
