DECLARATION OF THE GUARDIANS .OF BRENT. DEVON.
HALSE'S' SCORBUTIC DROPS.
A SURE CURE FOR BAD LEGS.

The following case has excited so much interest, that the Guardians
of the parish of Brent, Devon, have considered it their duty to sign
their names to the accompanying important declaration :

We, the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Rollin,
one of our parishioners, commenced taking " Halse's• Scorbutic
Drops" he was literally covered with large running wounds (some
of them so large that a person might have laid his fist in them) ; that
before he had finished the first bottle he noticed an improvement,
and that by continuing them for some time, he got completely-
restored to health, after everything else had failed. He had tried
various sorts of medicines befi re taking " Halse's Scorbutic Drops,"
and had prescriptions from the most celebrated physicians in this
country, without deriving the least benefit. " lialse's Scorbutic
Drops," have so completely cured him, and he is now enabled to attend
to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From other cures
alto made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's Scorbutic
Drops" to the notice of the public.
Signed by John Elliott, sen., Lord of the Manor, John Manning,
William Pearce, Henry Goodman, Arthur Langworthy.

June 21, 1843.
Tne above-mentioned Thomas Holing was quite incapable of doing
any kind of work whatever before he commenced taking those Drops.
Some of his wounds were so large that it was most awful to look at
them, and the itching and pain of the wounds generally were most
dreadful ; indeed, the poor fellow could be. heard screeching by
passers by, both day and night, for sleep was entirely out of the ques-
tion. He was reduced to mere skin and bone, and daily continued to
get weaker, so that there was every probability of his speedy death.
Bead the following extract from the " Nottingham Review" :
IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD THE CAUSE OF SCURVY,
DAD LEOS, &c.

" It is really astonishing that so many persons should be content
to be afflicted with scurvy wounds in the legs, &c., when it is a well-
ascertained fact that Halse's Scorbutic Drops' make the disease
vanish like snow before the sun. No one is better enabled to judge of
the value of a medicine as to its effects on the bulk of the people
than a vendor of the article ; and as vendors of this medicine we can
conscientiously recommend it to our friends, for there is scarcely a
day passes but we hear some extraordinary accounts of it ; indeed,
we have known parties who have tried other advertised medicines
without the least success, and yet on resorting to this preparation,
the now justly-celebrated • Halse's Scorbutic Drops,' the disease has
yielded as if by magic. We again say, Try Halse's georbutic Drops.' "
