| Description Of Item | Addressed to William Hamilton. He gives details of his life since he last wrote and provides an introduction for a Polish count on his way to Glasgow 'who represents the human species in the completest little miniature you ever beheld'. He describes a dissection at Windmill Street which showed the viscera 'wonderfully and completely transposed' and a heart without a pericardium, both cases written up by Dr Bailey. He presides once a month at the Lyceum Medicum 'where debates are full as amusing as instructive'. Transcript available. |
