A letter to Philip discussing a possible disease outbreak in New York. Cornwall says fear of another Yellow Fever epidemic, like that in Philadelphia is high. However, so far all cases of disease have been contained to the first infected person's neighborhood. He mentions that in his opinion "at present I seldom ever recollect its being more healthy at this season of the year than now."
