As we are about to go abroad, we wish to let our house quickly, and
for this purpose have consented to reduce our terms from ---- guineas
to ---- guineas, furnished. We are quite convinced this is a very
cheap rental for the style and accommodation of the place, which we
think you will be pleased with, if you will favour it with a visit.
The scenery is beautiful; the parish church is close at hand, as
also the station; the neighbourhood is excellent. There is a good
market town within easy reach. Trusting to hear from you shortly,
I remain,
Yours faithfully,
H---- H----.

Expenses of Patients._
Denbigh, July 20th, 187--
SIR,
I am directed by the committee of management to request you will
remit the sum due for the maintenance of the sick people introduced
by you during the last quarter. The amount due, I believe, was
furnished you by the house surgeon a week or two since.
I remain, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
H---- H---- I----.

_From a Gentleman, enclosing a Certificate of Illness from a Medical
Man, excusing himself from attending at his Office._
Brompton, May 28th, 187--
DEAR SIR,
I enclose, as you wish, a certificate from Dr. R. P----, who has
been attending me for the last few weeks. I hope most sincerely I
shall be able to resume my duties about the middle of the week,
particularly if I go on improving as I have done the last few days.
I trust you will tender my best thanks to all for their forbearance
and assistance during my illness.
Believe me,
Yours very truly,
H. B. H.

_Medical Attendant's Certificate._
Brompton, May 28th, 187--
I beg to certify that Mr. J. W---- is unable to attend to his
duties. For some weeks past he has suffered greatly, but I think in
a week or ten days he will be in a position to resume his post.
B---- O----, M.D.

assure you that no pains on my part shall be wanting to alleviate
the sufferings of the poor, with due regard to the interests of the
ratepayers.
I remain,
