To a doctor, requesting consultation on a matter concerning the health effects of the climate: "I should very much like to consult you tomorrow (Thursday), if you can spare the time on such a busy day. It will be very kind if you would let me know by the bearer about what time I may expect you. I think I must be honest to confess that I am homeopathic & only wish to consult you on a question of climate. Perhaps you wont come to see such a heretic! [...]". - With collector's note to backing paper, somewhat brownstained.
