cadilly.
.' GENTLEMEN—I have no hesitation in replying to your inquiry as
to the results obtained by the use of your improved Spectacles;
being in the constant habit of reading and writing for many hours
together by lamp light, it is but justice to say that your newly-in-
vented Spectacle lenses have afforded me the greatest comfort. When
I employed the ordinary pebbles I never failed to experience in the
morning a great iritation in the eyes. Since I have used your ad-
mirable glasses I suffer from no inconvenience of the kind, and my
vision is much improved. I shall ever feel grateful to my good friend,
Dr. Blundell, for having drawn my atten ion to the subject.
tielieve me to be yours, very respectfully,
"T. J. PETTIGREW, 8, Saville-row, the 4th January, 1839..9

into the cavity of the ear is soft, easy, and not more uncomfortable
nor perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, and the
