—Extract of a letter from Mr. J. Hird, draper, Beady,
dated Feb. 14, 1852, to Professor Holloway :—" Sir,—
My child, when three months old, was afflicted with a
severe eruption all over her body. I sought every aid
and the advice of surgeons and physicians, by all of
whom the case was considered hopeless. I then tried
your Ointment and Pills, and without exaggeration the
effect was miraculous, for in a short time she was restored
to perfect health, and so remains. Mr. Bowden, book-
seller, Gainsborough, and myself, would be happy to
satisfy' any inquiries as to the truth of this statement."
