Dear Doctors

Mrs. Strode has continued very unwell
since she came here. - ever since her confinement
she has had a pain in her left side. It was at first
rather in the right side but soon got to the left &
continues [there] - it is very painfull & very distressing -
- she has a slight fever every day & no appetite &
very weak - she has great confidence in you &
in no other physicians - I must ask the favor
of you to write to her by mail what to take
we can get medicine of any kind - she requests
me to add she has frequent head aches -

I will see you both soon & try to
make some satisfact ing pecuniary arrangments.
with great respect yr. obt. freind

Tho Strode

Northumberland Court House
