tired TO death; and the worst Of The matter
was, that all these foolish patients had real
maladies; not the imaginary, tantastcal com
plants Of the rich, whu are i'll because thev
nave leisure, but Ihe positive, substantial
maiadies Of the poor.
Now, as these troublesome patients were
really atfl cled with the long catalogue Of ills
that flesh is heir TO, and as our young doctor
was very foulshy unlike great many of his
wiser brethren, he lei himself unable to for
get them, or to cut them altogether; and as
one disagreeable consequence generally
comes pretty closely y on the heels Of another,
il Of course came 10 pass that, as alt his pa
licnts were poor, the doctor himself was not
very rich; and thus ugain il followed that he
was obliged 10 resort to that primitive mode
of conveying himself about, The fashion ol
which was first set by Adan-we mean that
the doctor, not being able to afford carriage
or cab, OF stanhope, or a,lbury, was obIl
