Thanks JP for his kindness, but unfortunately the [unspecified] case is of no use to him.
Regrets that he cannot send the promised volume [Biographie médicale, 7 vols, 1820–5, biographical appendix to Dictionaire des sciences medicales]. Offers to have his son make an abstract of the biography [of Erasmus Darwin].
Thanks for Erasmus Darwin. It is a rare life and an unmatched illustration of the transmission of intellectual strength.
