          Washington - He is now in Phila [Philadelphia]

Mr Maclean intended to go to N.Y.
this week but has been prevented
by a [small?] fever. he suffers much
with bad teeth. You do not
say any thing about the Dr's. House
he has not let it yet and wishes
to know what your intention
is in reference to it.

I have a class to meet in
a few [moments?] and [must?] 
therefore be very brief

Yours, Sincerely

[at left margin: Dr J. Torrey] [below the closing: Jos. Henry]

P.S. You will not be expected to
teach more often than before. I wish
to complete my course - so that we
may have no double lecturing at
or toward the close of the session
as in the case of last year.
