To John Adams from Benjamin Rush

8 October 1810

Dear Sir, Philadelphia Octobr 8th 1810

I enclose you a small publication which contains an account of a new auxillary or palliative remedy for madness. It will serve perhaps be acceptable to some of your medical friends. You will I have no doubt amuse yourself and your fire side by wishing that it could be applied for the relief of napoleon,—George the third, and all the mad federalists & democrats in our country.—

From Dear Sir / ever yours

Benjn Rush
