Pioneering American physician and patriot (1732–1815) who wrote the first article on animal diseases published in the United States and was a member of the family for whom Tufts University was named. ALS, one page, 6 x 7.5, September 13, 1787. Letter to Dr. Amos Holbrooke regarding association rules. In part, “I do not find by the Rules of the Association, that it is required to give the Members Notice of the Stated Meetings, nevertheless, it may be of advantage…to remind them of the next.” Second integral page bears a hand-addressed panel to Holbrooke. In very good condition, with intersecting folds and some scattered light toning and soiling. Tufts’ writing and signature are quite bold.
