HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.
A PATIENT IN A DYING STATE,'CURED OF A DIS-
ORDER IN THE CHEST.
Extract of a Letter from Mr. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes-
ly, dated January 29th, 1847.
SIR,—Mr. Thom xa son, National Schoolmaster of this Town
desires me to send you the particulars respecting a Son of his,
who had been seriously ill for three years and a half, and who
has derived the greatest benefit from the use of your medicines,
after trying all ordinary resources without effect. The Boy is

eight years of age, of strumous or scrofulous constitution. 'He
seems to have had a Pleurizy whiclr ended in a large collection

through the wale

sores, which continued to discharge large quantities of pus up
to May, when he was induced to try your medicines; at this
date he was in an apparent dying condition, and in the highest
degree of Marasmus or Consumption. He had severe hectic
fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con-
stant distressing cough—no appetite—and the Stomach reject-
ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be-
gan by taking five of your Pills night and morning, which were
gradually increased to ten, which in a short time had the effect
of completely curing
.the Cough, the Stomach affections, and
restoring the urine to its natural state. His strength and flesh
are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good.
(Signed) ROBERT CALVERT.

AND STOMACH COMPLAINT..
Extract of a Letter from the Earl of Aldborough, dated Villa
Messina, Leghorn, 21st February, 1845.
To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY.

SlR,—Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my
thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending
me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of send-
ing you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add
that your pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver
and Stomach, which all the most eminent of the F^ zt

acuity
home, and allover the Continent, had not been able to effect •,
a
n y, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish
to leave another Box and a Pot of the Ointment, in case any
of my family should ever require either.'
,Your most obliged and obedient servant,
(Signed) ALDBOROUGH.
