Mr Bunkle
I [was favoured?] with yours yesterday and am
heartily concerned to find Mr. Bunkle's ailments so
obstinate {illeg} all remedies and I am not disposed
to advise any new ones at present. I blame very
much the late wet and cold weather for retarding
his recovery and I hope a little of real Summer
will be of service to him. In the meantime let him
Ride out as often as he can, let him use the Flesh
brush both for thigh and arm very diligently
and continue the Stomachic pill as occasion may
require. I expect soon to be passing your way and
shall call upon you to give what advice I can find
place for. My Compliments and best wishes to Mr
and Mrs Bunkle and son
Dear Sir
Your most obedient servant
