Dr. Sir
I have heard you express a wish to have a physician in the
neighborhood of your plantation on the river. Doctor Lyman Cronkrite
the bearer of this is looking out for a situation to locate himself
as a practitioner of medicine. He has been recommended as a worthy
young man well qualified for the duties of his profession.
