Description
Dated 25 November. Had not taken any medicine after visiting Cannstadt on his doctor's advice; improvement was so slow that he went to Dr Muller at Calw for advice, who prescribed ointment for his head for three months; he is now improving. Is staying with Rev C. Barth and is helping him by 'translating missionary accounts out of English into German, since he is publishing a missionary newspaper'; Barth is well provided with English books; 'I am not allowed to read very much but still I may read several hours a day'.
