RECENT qujigs, tact.
To Dr. Sotostort, Gilead-House, near Liverpool.
STR—An instance of the singular efficacy of your
Cordial Balm of Gilead, has lilies under my notice, which
merits general publicity. A man, in this neigliiiaurlioad, about
the age of thirty, had the appearance of labouring under that
most dangeimis disease, the Phibisis Pulmonalis, or Consumption.
He had a consideraple degree of ha icie fever, profuse night sweats,
expecrorated much, and was redoc,il to a state of extreme debi-
lity. Having had.the best medical advice he could procure, with-
out obtaining relief, he had recourse to your Cordial Balm of
Gilead. For some time he perceived hid:: alteration ; but perse-
vering in the use of this medicine, all :I:e unfavourable symptoms
• abated, and be hay attained a vigorous state of health. •
