HoNouRE”
I BEG leave to inform-yott, that ever since the
year 179e,.1 had been afflicted with the Lots Venerea;
which, from its obstinately resisting every course a medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
der-going severalsevere 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 had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period
to my existence—li bad a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful
manner; my right was dreadfnlly painful, and had been in a
state of ulceration fur the last seven yeat-S ; nty.ieft had also
two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed,
as nearly to deprive me of rest ;-in this lamentable state,
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 of Mar; 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 healed—
soon atter, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how-
ever, considerable discolouration in Use skin, and paireinthe
hone of the left, which, by the blessing of. God, Juni! a little
longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free front all toy.
Former complaints—hare recovered my tOrmer spirits a na
strength, and ant become jolly and. fat, in which state having
continuedluany months, to the astonishment of all who {;new
me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratit tide, but
beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals,- to make
this my case as public as possible, as I shall oti every uoca-
ion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant,
