Thomas Beddoes to James Watt, 4 July 1796

Dear Sir

I sh^d be glad of the case of haemorrhage on all acc^ts & will thank you to request Dr Carmichael to forward it, as also whatever else he may think fit – I sh^d like also to receive any communication from Mr Barr.

I have a chance of being from home this week. I have been asked if I w^d go near Winchester to see L^d John Russel. In case she lives till my answer is received & a reply is made, I must I think be called away on Thursday – But if you can come to Bristol only this week, I wish you w^d call on Mr W^m Clayfield to whom I have spoken. He w^d make the exp^t in his apparatus with metal & sulphur –

I am

yours truly

Thomas Beddoes
