FOR THE SIGHT, &c. Sc.. tee.
MR. WILLIAMS, from Penzance, Cornwall, begs
to acquaint the Nobility, &c. &c. Sec. of the Metropolis,
and its vicinity, that he has brought with him a most Invaluable
Medicine, so well known by the name of Mn. WILLL4.II4S's
REMEDY, so justly esteemed for the removal of Specks and
Film,. and appearances of Clouds and Mists, &c. fruit the Sight
also, to strengthen and renew weak or decayed Sight, (even should
the pattentle 80 years of age) and perfectly to eradicate the most
Inveterate Humours and Inflammations of the Lye", and also that
common complaint of Re dress of the Eye-lids, in the course of a
few weeks, of ever so long standing.
Mr. WILLIAMS conceives it no arrogation on his part to say,
no Remedy for the Eyes has ever yet been offered to the public,
which (on a fair trial) has been found to passes* the excellencies
(and yet inntieency) which Mrs. Williams's Remedy does; and
begs to say, after a great many proofs of its efficacy, (and which
was never known to fail of doing good, unless the sight was so
far gone, from an internal decay, of the energies of sight, as tube
irrecoverable by any external application) that he is encouraged
to offer this Invaluable Medicine to persons of all ages and des-
criptions, afflicted in either or all of the aforementioned distres-
sing particulars. As a small proof of 'which, Mr. W. begs leave
to call the attention of the Nubility, &c. &c. &c. to the following
Liat of Names and ages, the whole of which have been either ra-
dically cured or benefited by the application of the sante Medicine
at Penzance, within the very short space of Three Weeks, although
many of them attended on Mr. Williams from towns and pa-
rishes several miles distant, and some of them were dreadfully
afflicted for a great many years either with total blindness in one
eye, weakness of sight or short sight ; ur with inflammations emf
the eyes and eyelids, or bloodshot, or what is often vulgarly term-1
ed " a Blast in the Eyes," wider which they laboured, although I
some of them were previously favoured with the advice of the
Faculty.

" We the undersigned, conceiving it our duty as Magistrates
minute ly to investigate the very surprizing accounts we received
of the numerous cures effected at Exeter and Devon by Mrs.
Williams, and by Mr. Williams at Penzance, in this County,
do hereby certify, that having examlued and cross-examined the
persons mentioned in the. foregoing List, who presented them-
Iselves before us for that purpose, that we are perfectly satisfied
respecting the truth of the same, and of their declarations; and
we also further certify, that although such an immense number
have been benefited, there has not been one instance of any °tie
I person being injured. In Witness whereof we hive affixed our
bands and seals, the 15th day of April 1903.
RD. HICHENS,
RD. /LICHENS, Clk.
Two of his Majesty's lustices of the Peace, in and fu
the County of Cornwall."

Mr. W. humbly begs to acquaint the Nobility, &c. that he is
-ready to produce the original Certificates to any of the Nobility,
&c. who may wish to be satisfied respecting their authenticity ;
the whole are witnessed by two, but most of them by four re-
' putable witnesses. In addition to which Mr. W. begs to particui
I barite on'y two persons out of many, Wjlo have been benefited at
I Exeter acd at Bishupste.ngton.
A lady now at Exeter certifies, she attended 'backwards and
forwards on the first Oculists, is London fur several years, and
that she had never found any thing to reach the complaint till
she had ;Mrs. Williams's Medicine, and that she had received
1` more benefit from hiur applications, than any one thing else ever
4 had applied to her eye before.
Ann Harris, 69 years of age, has received great benefit in both
eyes (although only applied to one); she can see in that eye in
which she has been totally blind two years. Mrs. Glass, in the
74th year ut het age, has had her sight restored, and inflamma-
tion removed after a severe affliction of upwards of thirty years :
she can see to work with her needle without spectacles.
Both the above Cures are witnessed by the Rev. Mr. John
Comyns, Vicar of the Parish of 13ishopsteington, who cross ex-
amined the parties respecting the benefit they had received, and
desired Mrs. W. to make use of his name, and refer any lady or.
Gentleman to him if necessary. And bes:ly, he begs leave to
make an extract from a Letter from the Rev. Mr. Elichens,
A. M. wrote to his friend Colonel Montgomery, M. P. 19,
Gloucester-Place, Portman square.
" The bearer of this, Mr. Williams, Statveyur of the Port of Pe • -
aance, I beg leave to introduce to you as possessing to ray know-
ledge an infallible cute for short sight, itc. inflanunataim, and
blindness. Above sixty persons have this day tendered themselves
to make affidavits of their cure before my Father and myself as
Magistrates:'—Dated Pol tail., 14th April, 11408.
—''l'o all poor persons who bring with them certificates,
signed by the Minister and Churchwardens, or the Governors of
Hospitals, &c stating the nature and length of their Disorder.,
Mr. W. will apply the Medicine without any charge to them ;
nor will he have any claim on the Parish, &c. unless such pour
Persons receive benefit, confuting that such Parishes, &c. &c. will
compensate him after the benefit is received.
PerSORS may expect to receive some benefit after a very few
applications, without being obliged to withdraw from their usual,
I amusements or labour, or offices, &a. &c. Cu the contrary, Mr.
W. pledges himself that they will be the better qualified for either,
within ten minute, of the Medicine being applied, of only one drop
each day for a few days, although many have declared themselves
I cured after only two applications ! ! !
i His charges to the Poor will be as easy as possible, after ea,-h
I application; but to others, according to their situations and rank
in life.

Mr. WILLIAMS will give attendance at No. 169, 0xf..r.1-street,
near Duke-street, from one till seven o'clock in the evening,
(Sundays excepted), and from seven o'clock until twelve.
Mr. W. will wait or any Lady or Gentleman, who cannot
make it convenient to.attend on him.
Mr. W. begs to acquaint the reades of this address, that they
cannot do their fellow-creatures a greater set of kindness, than by
referring such of them as are afflicted in their tycs, to Mrs. Wil-
liams, at 168, Fore-streo. Exeter; or to him, at 169, Oxford-
street, London, where (it is more than probable) they will b.
radically cured.
