![The following Observations on Contagion were originally drawn up in June, ] 812, in a; letter addressed to Or. Chisholm, and were intended as an answer to his strictures on my proposed classification of contagious dismses: the substance of that communication to Dr. Chisholm has, in every respect, been preserved entire, though, for obvious reasons, in the paper as now printed the epistolary form is laid aside. New York, January 2, 1815.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b30795667_0003.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
