ABOUT two years and a half ago, I was seized with

sent for a physician, who ordered me to be bled ; I alio
took a great many medicines, but grew worse instead
of better. My head ached so violently, that it prevent
ted me from getting any rest ; my face and head broke
out in large blotches, which spread so much that I was
in daily fear of loling my eye tight. The humour
which difeharged from my face was so very off^Tt,
th^t I could hardly bear it myfelf ; but by the use G
your Maredant's Drop?, am effe&ually cured. Any
Deifon doubting of this may be convinced of the truth,
by calling on Mrs. Copfon, at Brompton, o: by en
quiring of Mr. Orm, coal merchant,, in Witcotnb-
IV:ct. near Leicefter-fields. I am, with great refpt&,
fir, your most humble servant
MARY COPSON.

rendered me incapable of business; I have the fatis
ftalon to i:r : orm you^ I am now perfe&ly cured, by the

curing benefit to others, afflicted as I was. I am, fir,
