A CASE HIGHLY DESERVING THE ATTENTION
OF THE PUBLIC-
To Mr. CANIf Aar, Proprietor of VlLiari VaCIEVAIILZ SYNC;
52, Berner's-at.ect, Oiford-street,
SIR—You have my c( :mot to relate my Cure to
the Public, as one of the roost remarkable ever performed
by Medicine ; but which has, bless Gun, been effected by your
invaluable Dc Velnos' Vegetable Syrup.
Constant exposure, from the nature of my business, to the
extremes of heat and cold, caused a gathering within my body,
and ray bowels to contract, till time shewed an Abscess had
formed within me ; and, after lying some weeks in a most melan-
choly state, it broke, and I discharged large quantities of matter
from my mouth for several days together. To add to my suf-
ferings at this period, a second Abscess formed, and I was obliged
to undergo an operation to save my life.
During a constant discharge from this Abscess, night and day,
such was my melancholy situation,that another Abscess formed in
my groin, and I was compelled to undergo a second operation.—
From the extreme discharge of my wounds and sufferings at this
time, I was reduced to a skeleton, and so weakened that I was
obliged to be lifted in and out of bed like an infant, all my Doctors
having given me over, expecting every hour would be my last.
—A Gentleman who called by chance saw me in this dreadful
state, and begged, fur Gun's sake, that I would try your Vegetable
Syrup. From his persuasion, I was at length Induced to send for
bottle, but with little hope that it could afford me any relief.
While taking the first two bottles, the discharge from the wounds
increased greatly, but on taking four it abated much. By per-
severing in the use of the medicine, without interruption, the
wounds gradually healed up sound, and, by Gon's blessing, I
was perfectly restored to health by the use of nine bottles of your
Vegetdble Syrup, after three Physicians pronounced I could not
live many days, and am now better than I have been for the last
:Zo years, and in fact as well as ever I was in my life.
If any persons should doubt the truth of my interesting ease
ansl cure, let them apply to me, and I shall feel a pleasure in
giving them any further information they may require of,
Sir, your much obliged and very humble servant,
129, lot'enham Court-road, I JAMES YOUNG.
