attested 'and'. sworn to before 'Thomas Doneaster,'

Stit,
IMUST confess that .1 am at a ross how, or in
what manner to' describe the,pieliire of • the former
.state of .my disease. I think my.own, or any other. pen,.
Unequal to conveying a full idea or the deplorable condition
my whole frame was in. AtioUt IS yearsago, I was atrael:-
ed with a Scorbutic Humour, which
,appeared in different
parts of my body ; to 'repeat the,.train of regular medicinal
means my disorder has led Me through, Would-be teZtious, •
let it be sufficient to say, tharthe rentedie•l used were of
the most varied kinds, all of which proved inetfeeluall
my complaint increased to a truly alarming degree, my •
body, from head-td foot, Was covered-with an inveterate
scurf, which scaled off in great quantities, and fOr these_
last six years, however, incredible it may appear to the
world,._ I can with truth assert, as hundreds of my neigh- -t
bours are ready 'to testify,- that my flesh has literally been
rotting from off7my bones, and that great part of the spinal
Or back bone was quite bare ; my feet, front my ancle to
my toe ends
.were become one entire putrid sore, and in
many parts the bones appeared, and in a d2e:iying
Such was the putrid ,state of my body, 'that .it three dif-
ferent
times all my finger anzt tae-nails came entirely off';
through.disease .I was deprived of the use of my lunbs,
and the excruciating pain retarded my-sleep, so that lite
itself became a 1.-tirden to me. In the month of February
last, 'I was strongljr recommended •to stake trial'ef your
Dropsi Of-which I had a bottle from Mr. William Lyon,
of Wigan, your sole Agent for that Borough. ' In the use .
of the first bottle, I tun a little alteration; but Infore 1
had finished three small bottles, I - was •in 'fat• recovered,
that I'could, with the assistance of a stick, walk from
Goulbourn to Wigan, a distance of six miles: I lierseve'red.
in the use of the Drops till' had taken ten small bottles, •
which, with the blessing of God, hay: restored me to a
perfed state of health and' strength : therefore it is my-.
wish and desire,' that the effiCacv Of A ntis,..orbUti,:
Drops, to&ther with my Care, he pu'vlis,lied, for the good
of mankind. .As witless my. hand,
