Equally respectable for the most promising Talents, as for the Purity of his Heart, I hope to see him, in in a few Years, an Ornament to our College & a truly valuable Member of Society.

I thank you for your Information respecting the late anatomical Work in France, & am Dr. Sir, with every Sentiment of Respect & Esteem

Yr. Friend & Servt.
