From a Son-in-Law to his Wife's Father, acquainting him with his Wife's Illness.
Honoured Sir,
I am sorry to acquaint you with the Indisposition of your dear Daughter. She was taken ill last Monday of a Fever, and has all the Assistance that we can procure in these Parts. I hope she is not in Danger. However, I thought it my Duty to let you know it in time, that you may satisfy yourself, that no Care is wanting; and that you may favour us with a personal Visit; which will be a great Consolation to her, who craves, mean time, your Blessing and Prayers; and also to, Sir,
Your dutiful Son.
This may serve, mutatismutandis, in the like Circumstance for a Daughter to her Husband's Father, or Mother, and in several other intimate Relations.
