As there is some alteration
in my son Jamie Seekness, I wanted to
Consult Doctor Cullen. Again, and to
accquaint him of the change; about the
beging (ing) of October, both his Ear's began to
discharge Blood / in place of the matter
that formerly came from them / And con¬
tinued to for fourteen day's, tho not dis¬
chargeg any great Quaintity at a time,
but since they are Running matter as
formerly, a few day's after the Running
of the Ear's changed from the Blood to the
matter, he was seised with a Lingering
seekness, a great heavieness, sleeped much
& Eat very little or not Food of any
kinde, but drunk fequently, which
hase continued now moore than a month
till within these few day's, he is better
th'o much pulled down in his Flesh
he was Bled let Blood off behind the
Ear's by Leitche's, when seised, and every
article of Doctor Cullen's directions
comply'd with, wit but the mercury
whicn Cannot be Got to ly on his
Stomack, I now Intreat of you to
write Doctor Cullen, with those Remark
and Get his oppinion what should next

be done the quaintity of matter now come¬
ing from his Ear's is much the same as before
& of the same collour, for fear that the Docter
hase forgot the former state laid before him

to Enable you to that I have here inclosed the
Docter's letter. ----- I wrote you last week to
