Accompanied by three prints with some minor dampstaining. Overall very good. Bard 1742-1821 son of New York physician John Bard took his medical degree in Edinburgh and studied there between 1761 and 1765 before returning home and joining his father's practice. He went on to found the first medical hospital in New York and to briefly serve as George Washington's private physician. This letter however is a chatty missive of a young student to his parents thanking his mother for a box of sweetmeats updating his father on a deal to purchase land in Montpellier France and asking for money to pay his food bills from the previous winter. The final page turns to explaining that the final week of the semester has been so busy he cannot possibly write any more news. This letter is accompanied by three prints: two views of Columbia College c. 1831 where Bard had established a medical school founded on the Edinburgh model and one portrait of Samuel Bard. unknown
