A MOST Authentic Proof of the very superior
IA. efficacy of the truly Genulne GOWLAND's 1.0 ['ION,
(prepared by Mrs. VINCENT, Sole Proprietor of Dr. Gov,-
LAND'S original Recipe), in a letter from W. DRAYTON, Esq;
Sion Hill, Bath :
" Tu Mrs. VINCENT, No. 6, Davics•atreet, Grosvenor•

square, London.
" MADAM—I should think myself d. flclent in duty to iroziety
and you, were 1 to withhold my public testimony to the great
efficacy of y cow LAND's LO which I have seen per•
formed by the administration of kin a case under my own roof.
• " A young gentleman, aged about seven years, sou of a.Colo-
nel in the army, was afflicted with a virulent and sore eruption,
accompanied with an intolerable itching in the wrists and insteps:
the complaint resistecrvarious applications from the united c 0.,.
sultation of three physicians of eminence, and continued to grow.
worse under the regimen prescnbed, when a lady, who had re•
eelved a cure of a very bad case of Scurvy in the lace, of several,
years standing, by your GO VILAND'S LOTION. recommended
a trial of the same remedy. It was applied under my own in•
spection—the disease gave way ; surd three quarts of your Lotion
performed a radical cure or a disorder, which had been of about
tour years duration, and had baffled the skill of several physician.
eminent in their pruf,ssion.
" Prom my conviction of the above cure, I recommended
your GOW LAND'S LO-I-lON to a Lady, whose face eshibited
a very disagreeable eruption, (even large pustules, and as one
died away another appear. ) so much to as to °midi* her go-
big into company : a pint of your L.:U 'KG I lON
elected a cure, and she is now fret from eruption.
" 1 ant, Madam," &c. " Il.i.lAM DRAYTON.*
