To T. TAYLOR, Esq.
No. 9, New Bridge-street, London.

HONOURED St R,
IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
year 1790,' 1 had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal,
which, from its obstinately resisting every course et medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis-
charged 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 ptit a period
to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of m head,
one en each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful
manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had-been in a
state of ulceration for the last seven years; my left had also
two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave
Me such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in i,ed,
as nearly to deprive me of rest ; in this lamentable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so
great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which I began to do on the 26th o. May; in the course of a
• fortnight 1 began to receive benefit,;-m• little more than a
month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed—
soon after, the sores OH my legs healed.' alto ;' leaving, how-
ever, considerably discolouration in the skin, and pain in the
butte of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little
longer poseverance in your toe:du-4.lde Medicine, subsided;
the nodes dispersing, the skits reg-"•ing its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly (tee from all my
former complaints—have recovered my former spiiits and
itre,ngth, and am become jo-l!v and fat, in which state baring
continued 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 suffering' mortals, to make
this my case as public as posible, as. I shall on every occa-
sion; in so doing you win greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant.,
