1922 · Denver
by Cheley, G.E., M.D.
Denver, 1922. . 2 page, autographed letter from Dr. G.E. Cheley to Mrs. Charles Robetson of Wiggins, Colorado. He reports on his incision and x-ray examination of her brother on July 31, 1922 who passed away. He notes that once inside the numerous abscesses, the bleeding could not be stopped. A very nice heartfelt letter of sympathy mixed with his explanation of the surgery. Such a case today would prompt many to sue the doctor though it seems evident that he has explained how the severity of the case prevents a good recovery. The letter and the mailing envelope are included.
