4391Robley Dunglison to James Madison, 24 June 1833 (Madison Papers)
My friend Dr Patterson & myself have arranged our University matters in such sort as to be able to pay a hurried visit to his Daughter on the Rappahannock; where we shall pick up Miss Leiper, who will return with us to the University. It is my earnest desire to pay my respects to you, and Dr. Patterson & Miss Leiper will probably accompany me. We shall be at Montpellier on Tuesday the 2d....

I am glad to learn from your letter of the 26th. Inst. that your troublesome complaint is, at the least, mitigated I do not think it would be advisable, in any other manner, than by the Sulphur Water, to attempt to remove the itching, as I should be afraid, that by any sudden repercussion of the irritation it might be transferred to organs of greater consequence. The internal use of the...
4393To James Madison from Robley Dunglison, 22 June 1826 (Madison Papers)
Mrs Dunglison and myself have been for some time anxious to avail ourselves of the kind invitation of Mrs Madison and yourself to visit Montpellier; but we have been prevented by the Baby having received, about a month ago, the Contagion of Hooping Cough. She is now, however, so much recovered that we are anxious, if perfectly convenient to you, to pay our visit in the Course of a week or...

4396Robley Dunglison to James Madison, 30 October 1829 (Madison Papers)
Some few of the Students, who are their own Guardians, have received permission from the Authorities of the Institution to be absent for a short time at the Convention. This I have considered it important to make known to you, as otherwise it might seem that they had absented themselves without leave. I have the honor to be with the most profound respect, Your obed Servant RC (DLC) . Docketed...
4397From Robley Dunglison to the Board of Visitors, 1 October 1825 (Madison Papers)
I am directed by the Faculty of the University to request your particular attention to their proceedings since the 22d of September, and to press upon your notice the necessity of appointing an efficient police as circumstances have occurred during the last and present night which render such a measure essentially necessary.

4398To Thomas Jefferson from Robley Dunglison, 18 November 1825 (Jefferson Papers)
I do not recollect the compromise to which you allude in your letter of yesterday—I well recollect your proposition on the subject, but it was waved, not agreed to, by me, as a proof of which I may state that I have not kept any account whatever against you. You will therefore do me the kindness to suffer the trifling attendance I have paid you, since the conversation to which you allude, to...

Dr Dunglison presents his respectful salutations to Mr. Madison, & would wish the Servant with the swelled neck to take 10 drops of the Tincture in the phial, twice a day, in a little sugared water, until the whole is consumed, when the Doctor would be glad to know whether the tumor is diminished by its use. Should symptoms of cholera morbus arise during the administration of the medicine, it...

I regret to see in the Enquirer of the 17th the charges of some anonymous Correspondent against the Authorities of the Institution. This I fear may be but the commencement of attacks of this character upon us, which, it may be difficult to answer. The course pursued by myself, in the case, has been a zealous one, and leaves no reproach whatever in my own mind: Still the world may not think so,...
