To T. TAYLOR, Esq.
No. 9, New Bridge-street, London.
HoNovae', SIR,
BEG leave to Inform you, that ever since the
I year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal,
wh;ch, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine.
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalscrere courses of salivation, and twice dim-
dinged from the Hospital with little relief, .would appear to
be of the mast inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put it period
to my existences—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
on e an each arm, and my leis 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 warm in
as n early to deprive me of rest ; is 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 I began to receive benefit--in little more than a
month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly heal,l—
soon after, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how-
ever, considerablediscolnuration in the skin, and pain in the
boot) of the left, which,. by the blessing of God, and a little
longer pet severance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnol pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
former eemplaints—have recovered my former spirits a lid
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which st.ste hariog
continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew
um, 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 possible, as I shall on every occa-
sion; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant
