Amongst the plagues I must not omit a two legged
animal tormentor something between the knave the fool of the
madman whom I have done my brother the
kindness to introduce to him in the quality of chemical
projector for which he is well enough qualified in point
of knowledge though of nothing else. He offered himself
to me in London and as his situation he was glad made
him content to come without that security which you
know it was not in my power to offer, I thought
it was no ill turn I had done my brother by encouraging
him to come here. He was moreover an able medical
practitioner in every branch if any faith is to be put
in former character or the signal successes that have attended
him here. In every other respect my Brother and
I think we characterize him not to one anotherend
pretty compleatly in a very short phrase by saying
he is just as opposite to another Dr we know as one man can be to
another, its folly and even madness are not incompatible

Of this alliance one of the affects is that this poor
fellow has so far forgot the Good advice you gave him
as to send my Brother verbal messages telling him when
to come to him and when not to come: and so far forgot

there was nothing that I should have cared about
