Sure, but he is a Young man & can enduce a great
dale, and his brother at Windsor was So, And
further told one he was So ill for 4 Years that
he was called, The Walking Ghost of Windsor
and yet got the better of itAnd further said
That there was a man kill'd by Accident at Chelsea
& upon his being Openda Part of his Lungs had
been decays & gone Owing to a Consumption he had
had, a great many Years before, and Yet was
on Perfect health at the time of his death
Yet Mr. Tyell for what reason God only Knows)
was of Opencon that Mr. Sibson had no need of any
Physician And upon my urgeing that a Physician
was Absolutely necessary, as I thot Mr. Sibson was
or dead man my daughter was very Angry wt
me and said I was a fine Comforter & Cryd I
answerd her; well my dear, I shall Trouble my head
no more about it And when Mr. Tyrell went
down Stairs She again begg his opinion, whether
a Physician was necessary And he Again gave
it in the Negative, unless it were her Particular
desire to have oneThis She told me when
he was gone away Being myself much in-
-dispos'd I did not Till with Mr. Sibson always
out when I went to enquire of him self how he
was, found him to weak that he Spoke with
uncaseness, very low, nor card to Speak to
any bodybut Sat groaning in his Chaer

At length by Over faligue & Want of Piefty my
daughter got a Violent Cold attended with a Treveal in
So much that she was light headed all one night
and on the money Mr. Tyrrell call'd upon them, and
desire'd she might not get up but take waom
things and she would be better On this account
bad as I was, I found my self under a necessity to
be with them all day to give them such things
as they wanted, as the maid had set up the might
before
