SIR,
TN justice to your Maredant's Drops, I fend you for
Ipublication a very furprizing cure effc^.-d by them
pn my sols.
About four years ago he was Irized with a most violent
fever, a [refute perfpiyatioh with a total loft ofappexm
Succeeded it, which was fallowed by a number of very
large Dwellings upon both legs one thigh, and on, his
head, which after tome time broke and emitted a great
quantity of matter, insomuch that he was almost deprived
cf the use of both his legs#
In this dangerous and emaciated condition I applied to
several of the faculty for sfliftance to no purpose, and who
at last pronounced him incurable, 'till reading a newfpa
,per, I fortunately f aft my eye on a case rimoil similar to
that °fPP' son's. I immediately determined to make trial
of] pur Drops, as the last resource, by which he has ob
tain'd a perfect cute. It is above three year< tince he dis
continued them, and is now as found ' arid healthy as he
was previous to his iodifeofitiou,
