request of our Medical Chief of Staff, and with the patient's full

intending patient desire to come and see or send some friend living in
the city, to see and verify that letter and many more like it, we shall
be most happy to oblige them.)

fault of the crayons, and could the Course No. 3 have reached me
undamaged by heat, as did the Course No. 2, I have not the least doubt I
should now be well. The symptoms of this disorder, still present, are
dreams at night, not nervous ones as before, but still unpleasant;
mucous oozing after straining, also in the morning on rising I find the
lips of organ glued, and on forcing apart a drop of
