'1414 was, from the year 1824, afflicted with chronic
eematism, Costiveness, a severe Bilious Complaint,
Flatulency, Nervous Irritability, &c., &c. ;
nf. which, I now find, were occasioned by the impu-
ty of the blood. I consulted, and bad the advice of
h
;till of the Faculty, for which I feel in duty bound to
tiY9 that they did their utmost to relieve my Putferings.
se of the above M.D.s candidly informed me that
was a very complicated case, sufficient to baffle any
heal man, and that nothing short of powerful medicine
1,4 I meet my complaint. As a last resource I placed
Ilielf under his care, and took very powerful medicine.
. near as I can recollect, the compound was composed
Ikllydrage, Calomel, Nitre, and Colchicum. After
etoing the above, for a considerable time, I took plenti-
litil of the Blue Pill ; and by way of an antidote, I took
41E. Draughts and Castor Oil. This was in the winter
tnon, during the latter part of which, in consequence of
11, excruciating pain, attended with a damp perspi
:ors, I was obliged to take my breakfast in bed
morning, for a very considerable time—
ilt(l after having been at a considerable expense, I despaired
W
lie month of March, 1333, when a gentleman in my
litlighbourbood, a part of whose family bad been cured by
I,tleeison's Universal Medicines, requested me to y them ;
4,1 as my case was so desperate that I considered it
„40ping against hope" to expect relief from anything, I
first refused, but from his calling the third time, and
,‘
;
Ittring me to two highly respectable gentlemen in the
4ltYs on whom 1 called, they kindly informed me that they
td received great benefit, and that " they should not re-
leire a doctor to enter their house again." I then coin-
' tlel*ed a course of the above invaluable medicine with
torison's Cleansing Powders.
Having been introduced to your-active and valuable
sent,
Mr. Haydon, I was emboldened to commence with
1%4 confidence which has fully confirmed his well-founded
tonviction of the virtues and powers of the medicines.
Probably, Gentlemen, you may recollect my calling
I tifton you about the early part of the spring of 1832,
lenting that I had suffered severely for years past with
°ironic. rheumatism in my leg and thigh, the use
°1 which I had nearly lost. I had then taken
lie medicine eight weeks, and was taking eight
Tiln each day, with powders three times per diem.
After stating my sufferings, Mr. Moat informed me that
case was a desperate one, and that nothing but time
..414 perseverance would ever effect a radical cure, as the
":11inonous humours were located on the above parts.
41": M., at the same time, wished me to increase the dose
%en pill each night. At the expiration of another eight
Weeks I again called at the college, at which time I was
taking sixteen pills per dose. I well recollect my obser-
vation at th e time, which was to this effect, that I did not
kbovy how to speak sufficiently in praise of the medicine
as to my bodily health, but my lag and thigh had not
received the least benefit. About this period, in addition
to the above complaints, I was afflicted with paralysis. I
41Yinatructions were to increase the dose up to thirty pills
each dose daily, which, in due time, I did, and con-
tinued Constantly taking them, varying the dose from thirty
10 fifty, and even to sixty ; and alter a considerable time
from the commencement of tAing the medicine, all the
before-mentioned disorders, being subdued. were rapidly
• departing, and my suffering limbs wereperfectly cured, the
tlet of which I have enjoyed unreservedly to the present
time.
At this particular period, my intimate friends and
neighbours often said that if I persisted in taking the
medicine, I should surely kill myself, as they observed
15Y very appearance portrayed, that I was going into my
grave as fast as I could. Aly general answer was,
that I should persevere with the medicine whatever might
be the consequence: and that I should not only look
better, but that I should ultimately be perfectly cured.
}laving received an epidemical complaint since the above
Cures, which caused, according to the usual phraseology,
It violent inflammation in my face, eyes, and ears,
I took ninety pills its twenty-four home, and various
dates each day, until that complaint was eradicated
from my frame. And on another occasion I took one
hundred and eighty.four pills in four days. lam so fully
towlines(' of the fact that Morison's Universal Medicine
is free from any destructive principle, that I should not
object to take from thirty to forty pills per day for six
months to come, even without powders, now that the
ncrimonous humours are extracted from the system. And
. lastly, I have taken the pills more or less daily since
the commencement, never omitting, except when on the
jury at the Court of Common Pleas, &c. &c. One of the
greatest reasons of my not writing before, was in conse-
quence of a number of ladies and gentlemen wishing ow
mint to do so, as they have often observed they approved of
my case better than any, as I did not write or puff about
it; they well knowing it to be a true one.
Now, Gentlemen, after having given you the above
- Itccount respecting any own astonishing cure, and the
•, efficacy of your invaluable Medicine, I beg to observe,
that baring eaptrienced such great benefit from it myself,
I feel anxious to communicate the same to other given up
sufferers; and although I have not fbrwarded to you a list
of cures, during my agency, up to the present time, yet'',
I beg to say I have been very successful in curing, with
your Medicines,' a great number of persons afflicted with
Consumption, Rheumatism, Paralysis, Tendency of Blood
to the Head, Gout, Scurvy, Bilious, Indigestion, Flatu-
lency, Nervous Irritability, and a variety of other dis-
orders, a number of which, respectably attested, I intend
'presenting to you and the public, in my annual report.
As to Mor:son's Universal Medicine being perfectly safe
and superior to any other medicine, I believe to be as true
as Heaven.

jam, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,

To the Editor of the "NEW WEEKIY DISPATCH."
Sir,—We bad prepared a/full, and, as we f-el assured, a
complete and unanswerable refutation of the continued
calumnies heaped upon us and our medicines, in the
" Weekly Dispatch ;" but, as these calumnies assumed a
wore definite, as well as more serious form, we, on mature
consideration, deem it a duty to ourselves and to the public
(being a national concern), to place the matter in the
hands of our 1-gal advisers, in order that the truth, or
falsehood, of the charges may be investigated by the most
approved tribunal. To the result of that investigation we
look with the utmost confidence for success; and that we
have sought the investigation, at least justifies us in asking
that the public will, in the mean time, suspend their
judgment. AIORISON and MOAT.
