CURE OF DROPSY, AND VARIOUS COM-
PLAINTS.
To Mr. SHEPHARD, Hygeist, Newcastle.
Dear Sir,—l should not have either troubled you or
myself with my testimony in favour of Morison's Pills after
such overwhelming evidence has already been laid before
the public of their most extraordinary efficacy in the cure
of all complaints to which the human frame is subjected,
had it not been for the base calumny perseveringly thrown
out against the Pills by a class of men from whom the
public might have expected better things. I read, the other
day, in one of the public journals, a charge preferred against
the Pills for basing poisoned a person. The truth or
falsehood of the charge I, cf course, at present, have no
means of ascertaining, but I fully believe the charge to be
false, and for the following reason :—My wife, about
twenty years ago, got an asthinatical complaint, from the
effects of bleeping in a damp bed ; the complaint gradually
gained upon her constitution, until about twelve years ago,
when the difficulty of breathing became so intolerable as
day after day to cause us to expect suffocation. She was
principally confined to her bed ; was, for years together,
not able to be without doors. She was regularly attended
by the faculty, for s of whom I feel under lasting ob-
ligations on account of their solicitude to render her relief.
Every means were tried that physicians and surgeons
could devise ; they pitied, but could not help, except in
giving temporary relief. From the time of her taking so
ill till about the end of 183 I—being about ten years—she
had blood let by the lancet or taken by leeches several hun-
dreds of times, besides blisters applied to her chest, some-
tmitneaeL thrice in the week, these being the principal
from which she felt relief. During the year
1830 it was too evident that the dropsy had affected
her weak and enaactabted frame; she became much swollen,
both in her face,
thoewels, and legs • palpitation be-
came very painful; Water was suspected' to be col_

plaint had assumed :such
Ap,zit as to preclude the last
ray of hope of her recovery.

It is a remarkable circumstance that the Pills, which4s%
Br
a strong purgative, were the means of greatly increasing
her strength. During the early part of 1832 the Dropsy
gave way to the powerful effects of the Pills, and by the
latter part of the year, and up to this day she has not
bad the slightest symptom of relapse. During 1832, little
effect had been produced on her astbmatical complaint,
but during this year, by the providence of God, she it,
greatly improved. She can now attend to her domestic
concerns; can take her rest at night; and is able occa-
sionally to walk three and four miles a day ; she is a
wonder to all who knew her. Whether ever she may be
perfectly cured seems a doubtful case, from the length of
time the complaint was suffered to prey upon the consti-
tution. It is now just two years since she commenced
taking the Pills, and has only omitted taking them two
days during that time. The number taken exceeds 9 000 ! !
How is it then that she is not poisoned ? This is my
reason for believing the charge preferred against the Pills
to be false. I leave my name and address with you, and
am Willing to refer inquirers, if any, to families of great
respectability,,,. who will corroborate the above statement ;
u
and am willing, either verbally or by letter, to answer any
inquiries. lam not an agent for Morison, and have no
other interest whatever in recommending the Pills, than a
firm
persuasion of their powerful and harmless (not poi-
sonous) effects, in eradicating disease of every kind front
the human system.
