-TO THOMAS TAYLOR, ESQ.

HOltou KED Silt, Edinburgh, March IS.
I BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
.jt. year f 799,. I had lieen afflicted -with the Lnes Venerca ;
which, ftom its obstinately resisting every course onnedicine
preserihed.,by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing several severe 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 bad got to such a head, as nearly to put a period
to inexistence.-- had a large ulcer do the crown of my head,
one on each arm, and my_legs were broke out in a frightful
manner; my right seas dreadfully painful,•and hart-been in a
state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also
two large -nodes on it, was very much discoloured, amfgave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in • bed,
as nearly to derive me of rest; in this lamentable statet.l
was recOmmendM by Mr. J. Thompson, (Who received so
great a care by theta here), to take vonr Leake's Patent Pills,
which I begat! to do on the 2Gth of May ; in the .course of a
fortpmght I began to receive benefit,—in- little more than a
sooNth the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed—
soon' after; the sores on my legs healed' alio; leaving, how-
ever, considerable discolouratioa in the skin, and pain in the
hone of the left;-wt ich, by the blessing of God, an.la little
longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, ;su.omsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaio:og, its ..atural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going-AL—I thus loecame, by
your liherrl advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
former. complaints—have recovered my former spiri}s and
strength, and antliecome jolly and fat, in which state having
coutinned many months to the astonishment nf all who knew
use, I am at a loss in Wliat terms to express My gratit tide, Ina
beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make
this Inv case as public as possible, as I shall on every oeca,
sion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant,
