| Description | Thanks him for his letter and the “kind and humane treatment” Alexander Stephenson has experienced under his roof. Is pleased the patient has received good medical attention. The cause of Stephenson’s detention has not been disclosed to his wife, who is “far advanced in the family way.” (Copy of an original in William Cheshire’s hand, signed by Boulton.) Soho, October 19th, 1810. Sir, I beg to offer you my acknowledgements for your obliging communications respecting the unfortunate accident which has befallen my gardener, and for the very kind and humane treatment he has experienced under your roof. It is a satisfaction to me to find that he has had the assistance of good medical advice, which I hope will be the means of soon restoring him to his family, to whom, from motives of consideration for his wife, who is far advanced in the family way, the cause of his detention has not been disclosed. I shall feel myself obliged by a continuance of that care and attention to this unfortunate man for which I now offer you my thanks, and remain, sir, your obedient servant, M.
