    DEP/DUA/1/38/32 (Normalised version)

    James Hutchinson

    (1785-1786)


    33. James Hutchinson at 18.

    Affected with many of those symptoms which justly considered as strong indications of Phthisis.

    And although cannot yet be said to be decidedly marked, yet at least strong presumption of that affection.

    Am I own very apprehensive that his case will terminate in same manner as that of mother, who informed in history fell victim to Phthisis.

    And perhaps even little more now to be done than merely to obviate symptoms.

    Of that however shall afterwards be better able to judge.

    In mean time Emetic for unloading brain & Pill Thebaic for looseness

    After measures by situation.
