In the little pieces I intend for.the press there will be the following 

 Dissertations viz. 1. on tlie yellow fever or fever of syam, one on the 

 remittent fevers of America with a short act of the Dry belly ach & a 

 worm fever that reiged there in 1 748. a small one on the yaws, one 

 on inoculation for the benefit of the poor & probably I may ad an 

 acct of the sulphur of mountserat as at that place all the operations of 

 nature in the production of sulphurious & vitreolish water becomes evi- 

 dent to our senses. & also a little on the petrifications of Antigua, where 

 you find whole trees almost couverted into flintes rocks, in al the clayey 

 lands & nothing hut Sparry petrifications in the marly part of the island. 

 adieu & believe me your most devoted humble serv*
