General B—— to the Duchess of ——
Yarmouth, Thursday, —.
My dear Madam,
Mr L—— has had a relapse, and is now more alarmingly ill than I have yet seen him: he does not know his situation, for his delirium has returned. The physicians give him over. Dr H—— says that we must prepare for the worst.
I have but one word of comfort for your grace—that your admirable daughter's health has not yet suffered.
Your grace's faithful servant,
J. B.
