[DOC ID:164] 
Reply with directions for Hugh Rose of Kilravock, who seems to suffer from headaches and eye inflammation. Cullen does not seem to think it necessary for him to go to Harrogate, but gives advice on bathing his head, diet and diaphoretic prescriptions. Destination may be either the Nairn area or Edinburgh: since the patient was an advocate, he may have been in town. Extremely poor copy on first two pages. 10 July 1781
