To THOMAS TAYLOR, Esq.
No. 9, New Bridge-Street, London.

Honoured Sir, , Edinburgh, March 01, tßot.
IBEG leave to inform you, that. ever since the
year 1790, I have been Minded with the LuesVene-
rea ; which, from its obstinately resisting every course of
Medicine preScribed by the .most eminent of the Faculty
Here, and undergoing several severe courses of salivation,
and twice discharged from the Hospital, with little relief,
would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In the
Spring of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as
nearly to put a period to my existence-7-1 had, a large ulcer
on the crown of my head, one en each arm, and my legs
were broke out in a frightful manner ; my right was dread-
fully painful, and had, been in a state, of ulceration for the
last seven,years ; my o(t had, also two large nodes on it,
was very much discoloured, and gave me such excrutiat-
ing pain, particularly when ,warm in. bed, as nearly to deo&
'pnve me of rest ; in' this lamentablelittate, I was recom-
mended. by Mr. l . Thoinpstiri, , (who received so great --
cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,,,
Which I began to ti,) on t 114! 76th of May ; in the course
Of a-fortnight, • I bee:an. to•-re,ceive. benefit--4-in little more
than a month, the' ulcers, on my heed and arms were
soundly- healed—soon atter, the sores on ray -legs 'healed •
also ; leaving, however, constuerable discolooration in the
skin, and pain in the bmie'of the left, which, by the 131es-
sing of Cod, and a little longer perseverance in yourinva,
luable Medicine, subsined ; the nodes dispersin;4, the skin
resainin4 its natural hue, and the nociurnal pains gradually
going olt. I thus became, by your liberal advice and Me-
dicine, perte,ttfy tree from all my former . complaints—
have recovered my former spirits and strength, and am be.
come jolly and fat,"in which state navingeontinued many
months to the astonishment of all Who knew me, I am at
a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, , but beg you,
for the good of other suilering mortals, to make this my
case as public as. possible, as I shall on every occasion;
in so doing, you will greatly eblige, Sir, your grateful,
-obedient, very humble serwutti ALEX. MURKER.
