Plain Text Transcription |
From Sir William Lemon at Carnanton in Cornwall to T.H. at Brighton in Sussex. He would like to inform T.H. that his uncle Colonel Willyams has now recovered from his late illness – he eats his broth with a good appetite and is sleeping well again. It is also pleasing to be able to report that Dr Hall states that ‘there has been no effusion in consequence of the seizure, nor has it left the smallest paralytic affection, which these kinds of attacks are so often attended with. Lemon is to return shortly to Teignmouth in Devon. (1 sheet, 1p.) 11 October 1800 |
Notes |
Lemon's father, also named William, was married to Haweis's cousin Anne, the daughter of John Willyams of Carnanton. William Lemon was a prominent merchant of Truro near Carnanton. Colonel Willyams was a cousin of Thomas Haweis. |
