5 August 1840
Thacher, James, fl. 1840-1841
Autograph letter signed
Title: to James Mease
Remarks that he has just read in the North American [publication] that a number of physicians have declared that they believe there is no such disease as hydrophobia because they have never seen an instance of it. Hopes that Mease will come forward and dispute this claim.
