Mr Sankey
I know no other way of helping you in relation
to the Lunatick you mention, but getting him into
Bethlem Hospl. here, in order to which you
must let me know when he was first taken
ill, & from what cause if it be known, and
whether Melancholly or raveing, & if any
& what methods have been used for his recovery
his Name, & the Name of the Parish of his
Settlement, which when you have done
I will let you know if he shall be judged a fit
person to be admittedthe Charge whereof
if found fit to be admitted will be about
three pounds, & he may likely be kept
in the Hospital a year or two, to try if he
can be cured, if not he will be turn'd out
as an incureable

Signed by Mr. Treasurer.
