[DOC ID:741] |
Reply from Cullen, in the form of retained, loose, polished, autograph draft, addressed to 'Sir...' regarding an unnamed female patient with lung problems and written in response to an account of her case. The style of address implies that the addressee and his father, who both appear to be known to Cullen, are socially elevated (Cullen tended to keep loose drafts of his more substantial responses to his more prestigious clients). Letter in poor condition and with no indication of date. Now held in box of early letters but this positioning could be arbitrary. Persons unknown have not been linked to any Person ID numbers. | 1760? | |||
