Jeremy Bentham To Dr Foley
Good Doctor,
Permit me to place myself under your protection. I have learnt your existence from Echeverria. I write freely to Directors Liberators and Protectors. I make my to M. Dos. Perult in to make, if I can some title to your sympathy. About 4-1/2 years ago (I think it was) I sat at the feet of Dr William Hanton, in his quality of Anatomist the Garrick of L — he was off the stage I suppose before you were on it: about 53 at those of Dr George Fordyce in his quality of Chemist. I formed an acquaintance with him which produced a marriage between my younger brother and one of his two daughters Of all professional men those whom I most honour as such, — not to any the only ones whom I do honour are those of the Medical profession. It is matter of serious delight to me to know that he when business it has ben to deliver more of all classes from political evil in all its shapes has conclus about his person a man whose special charge it is to keep him and his delivered from physical evil in all its shapes.
Take out, now your weights and scales: in how many grams of there are in what is above, with yourself how many pounds of suds you will cause — send one for each gram. When Liberator offers his order for a Botanical forage for me, add to it your cgination. If Should there be any thing which it is in my power to do for Colombia, in your person or through your hands, let me know what it is — it should shall not be neglected. If you happen to know any thing about Colonel Hall it would gratify me to have hear it hear it from you. You yourself does it happen Suporta Libador I have, in my Letter to Liberator, taken leave to request may be put upon such papers of seeds that as from their habitat are supposed capable of enduring our food: annua would be a useful indication for those if any, which may be expected to perfect their seeds in the course of our summer: in which case their faculty of enduring frost is comparatively immaterial.
