He relates that he first asked Cowper to visit him, but that the poet responded that \"He had not moved from home in the last 20 years; & having seen his sixtieth Birthday he though it hardly possible for him to quit his own quiet abode to which he invited me with such tender cordiality, that I was unable to resist the invitation\".\n\nHe then describes how he both comforted Cowper and treated his companion Mary Unwin with \"an electrical apparatus\", which he discovered in the village, when she had a stroke during his visit \"with such success, that before I left the House I had the inexpressible delight of restoring our dear Lady to a little use of the Limbs she had lost -- I provided the best advice, as to medecine [sic] &c, from my Friend dr Austin\". Hayley continues, saying that since he has returned to Eartham, Cowper has been writing to him with assurances that \"our dear Patient advances slowly, in the acquisition of strength\".\n\nHe concludes saying that \"the medical part of my travelling History has almost exhausted my paper.
