Excerpt from UnderwoodsGratitude is but a lame sentiment, thanks, when they are expressed, are often more embarrassing than welcome, and yet I must set forth mine to a few out of many doctors who have brought me comfort and help' to Dr. Willey of San Francisco, whose kindness to a stranger it must be as grateful to him, as it is touching to me, to remember, to Dr. Karl Ruedi of Davos, the good genius of the English in his frosty mountains, to Dr. Herbert of Paris, whom I knew only for a week, and to Dr. Caissot of Montpellier, whom I knew only for ten days, and who have yet written their names deeply in my memory, to Dr. Brandt of Royat, to Dr. Wakefield of Nice, to Dr. Chepmell, whose visits make it a pleasure to be ill, to Dr. Horace Dobell, so wise in counsel, to Sir Andrew Clark, so unwearied in kindness, and to that wise youth, my uncle, Dr. Balfour.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
