TO T. TAYLt nt, Esq. No. 9, New Bridge-street , Loudon
14,k OURED SIR,
F. BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
year 1790, I had been afflicted With the Lues Venerea;
which, from its obstinately tesisting every conrse of medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of th.e. faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalsevere courses of salivati6n, and twice dis-
charged`front the Hospital with little.relief,, wenn appear to
be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my diaoreler..haa got to such a head, as nearly toput a period
to my existence— I had 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 dreadfully painful, and.had ',seen in a
state of ulceration for the laSt seven years ; my left had also
two large nodes, on it, was very touch discoloured, and gave
ine such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in bed,
as nearly 6) deprive me of rest Liu this lamentable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J. 'Thompson, (who received so
greats cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which, -I began to do on the Vith of May ; in the course of a
fortnight I began to receive bene6it .-iii little more than a
month the ulcers on, my head and arms were_soundly healed—
soon atter, the sores on my legs healed also; leaning, how-
ever, considerable discoloration in the skin, mid' pin i n the
bone of the left, which, by.the bleating of God, and a little
longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural.hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly- free front all my
former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a nd
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having
continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew
ale, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but
beg you, for the good of other sulfering• mortals, to make
this my case as public as possible, as I shall cu every occa-
ion; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant,
ALEX. MtJRKER.
