1842rif. 027989New Bedford MA 1842. 2 page autographed Bifolium to James R. Williams April 20 1842. New Bedford MA: 1842. Dr. Lyman Bartlett was one of the leading physicians of New Bedford. He studied in Paris and took a liberal position when some physicians disparaged homeopathy. His view while conventional felt that it's major points ought to be considered by medical science. This letter is written to his friend James R. Williams in Constantine Michigan on behalf of his brother Edwin 1812-1903 who wanted a loan to establish a sheep business in Wisconsin. Dr. Bartlett lists nine serious questions as to the feasibility of his brother's proposed idea. He is concerned for the good of his brother and clearly is willing to help him financially. In an interesting aside he speaks of the concerns of the whale men in Massachusetts who fear the rise of land oil will end their profession. He notes the rising sickness contemporary accounts speak of lung disease thought to be tuberculosis. Finally he notes the economic issue and hopes for a new tariff undefined. In 1852 he was among the Medical examiners at Harvard's Anatomical Museum. Folded addressed and stamped New Bedford MA April 21 with partial wax red seal. unknown
