PENDRELL'S PATENT FLEXIBLE
PENHOLDER.—To ensure ease and comfort in the
use of Steel Pens, now in such general use, W. P. has, at
great trouble and expense, constructed a PENHOLDER pos-
sessing four great requisites, viz., cheapness, durability, neat
and elegant appearance, and flexibility.
To quote here the many scientific opinions that have been
given on the uses of Steel Pens, and of the great necessity of
having Elastic Holders, would far exceed the limits of an
advertisement.

The Proprietor humbly, but with great confidence, ays
before the public this little, but no less effectual, promoter of
comfort, to all grades of society using a Pen, knowing that his
Flexible Penholder has only to be tried to be approved of.

Nottingham, 28th Aug., 1841.
This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. James Wilcockson,
Foreign Snuff and Cigar Merchant, Nottingham.
To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, London.
Sir,—l feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself, by
using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir. I am now in my
93d year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country
26 years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. I do most sincerely
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention. I
purchased a 2a. 4d. canister of your agent, Mr. Wilcockson, to-
bacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will bear wit-
ness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable
blessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"—l declare has proceeded
from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of those suffer-
ing, you may make what use you please of this letter, Mr. Wil-
cockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer the
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and so well
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,

P. S.—Sir,—l should not do you justice without stating my
relief was almost instantaneous. My eyes became clear and
freed from humour, and by persevering. in its use very fre-
quently I am enabled to read small print without the aid of
Glasses, and continue to enjoy God's grratest blessing—Sight !
free from pain. I have reason to be grateful, and do recom-
mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.
