| Description Of Item | The letter is a close analysis of a text which Christison describes as a treatise. If this is Russell's Treatise on Scrofula, it was published in 1808 and Robert Christison would have been aged 11. Either it is not Robert Christison, or if it is him he made the comments when he was a medical student in the 1810s or the letter is about another work. The writing is similar to CHR/1. |
