A FEW OF THE MANY THOUSAND TESTIMONIALS OF SIGHT

RESTORED AND DEAFNESS CURED,

Nottingham, 28th August, 1841.
This extraordinary cure is attested by Mr. Jas. Wilcockson,
_Foreign Snuff and Cigar Merchant, Nottingham.

To Mr. W. Grimstone, 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury,London.
Sir,—l feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself by
your valuable Eye Snuff. Sir, lam now in my ninety-third
year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country 26
years ; whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
I cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,
therefore unable to follow my business. Ido most sincerely
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain, but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention.
I purchased a 2s. 4d. canister of your Agent, Mr. Wilcock•
son, Tobacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will
bear witness to my extraordinary recovery of that most esti-
mable blessing of our life—" perfect sight"-1 declare has
proceeded from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of
those suffering, you may make what ,Use you please of this
letter ; Mr. Wilcockson and many others will vouch for:its
truth. I refer the sufferers to this gentleman, being your
Agent, and so well known in Nottingham.
I am, sir, your obliged servant,

Abstract of a Letter from Mrs. L. S. Brewer, Dressmaker
3, Edge-terrace, Kensington Gravel Pits.
" To Mr. Grimstone, Inventor of Eye Snuff.

" sth December, 1810.
" Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes
being so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many
medical gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist,
Dr. Alexander: indeed, I do believe my case was beyond all
their skill. ' Physic, bleeding, blistering, with a seaton, and
all kinds of lotions, but no relief,' till chancing one day being
led by your house, in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my
guide inquired if I had tried your Eye Snuff, on which I
purchased a Is. 3d. canister, opened it in the shop, took
some, and was greatly relieved before I reached my home.
I can with truth assert, and make oath if required to do so,
that it was your Eye Snuff cured me. Shall be happy to
answer any inquiry.—l am. sir, yours gratefully,
fl

L. S. I.3II,ENVER.

To 'Wm. Grimstone, Esq.
November 6, 1841

Sir,—Having seen your advertisements, I inquired of some
of those gentlemen who have derived so much relief from
using " your Eye Snuff." I purchased a 2s. 4d. canister for
my son, who was suffering so much from the Head-ache and
Deafness ; before he had used half of it, he was cured,which
nabled him to follow his profession.—l am, yours gratefully,
M. HACKBI7.
Mr. Banister, Surgeon, 2, Cross-court, Broad-street.

To W. Grimstone, Esq., 39,„8r0ad-street

10th December, 1840

" SIR,—I have been afflicted for many years with a severe
pain in my head, attended with a dimness of sight and dart-
ing pains in my eyes, for which I have had the first medical
advice; indeed, I have taken large quantities of medicine,
without receiving any relief; but I am now delighted to say,
with truth, that ever since using your valuable eye snuff, which
I have taken copiously, that is, a 2s. 4d. canister weekly, I
am quite free from those excruciating pains, and can read the
smallest print, although I am in the 67th year of my age.
This is my third testimony, and I shall be most happy to give
it to you or to any respectable inquirer at my residence as
under.—l remain, with gratitude, sir, your obedient humble
servant, " E. ROBSON.
" 19, Bell-street, Edgeware-road, Marylebone."
P.S.—Sir, I should not do justice without stating my relief
was almost instantaneous. My Eyes became clear and free
from humour, and by persevering in its use very frequently I
am enabled to read small print without the aid of glasses, and
continue to enjoy God's greatest blessing—Sight ! free from
pain. I have reason to be grateful, and do recommend your
Eye Snuff to all I know. A. Z. M., Nottingham.

The following is one of Don G. Lobe's letters :
Havannah, 14th Aegust, 1841.
Dear Sir,—l had the pleasure to receive in due time your
friendly correspondence and supply of Eye Snuff on the 15th
of August, also the 13th October last year ; however, from
my extraordinary increased consumption of your delightful
compound of herbs known as Grimstone's Eye Snuff, I take
the liberty of asking you to forward by first ship 1500 more
cases same as last. Sir,—l have enclosed you a bill, sixty
days' sight, Messrs. Pinto Perize and Co., Crutched.friars,
London. I further thank you for the appointment received
through the Spanish Consul, Don Pedro Ortiz de Zugasti,
at the court of Great Britain. Please to send the above
Snuff with all possible speed, with a large quantity of Spanish
testimonials. This article has become a favourite amongst
the first circles of nobility and gentry, both for its medicinal
and benign qualities. Indeed it appears to keep off diseases,
as well as cure them, if taken as other snuffs.—l remain, sir,
your most obedient servant, DON G. LOBE.

H. WARNER and Co.'s BRANDY bears mixing with
boiling water, and will stand every other test to which Fo-
reign Brandy may be subjected, being purer and better than
seven-tenths of the Brandy imported into th
while its Savour has deceived many of the best
foreign trade

H. W. and Co. are fully sensible of the prejudice in fa-
vour of the Article imported direct from France, a feeling
which, however general, they could speedily remove, were
they permitted to divulge the principles which have cost
them so many years of arduous labour and expense, in a
foreign land, to acquire ; this, however, the Public cannot
expect from them, but they pledge themselves that their pro-
cess is, in all respects, the same as that which is adopted and
approved by the most eminent Distillers and Rectifiers on
the Continent, and that their Brandy wants age alone to
render it equal to any French Brandy, with the exception of
the real Cognac, which few only have been fortunate enough
to taste, and scarcely any to possess.

'I hese Bibles are universally prOnounced by competent
judges to be the most beautiful of the kind. The object of
the Publisher has been to give the best quality of paper and
print, with eminent Editorship, at the lowest possible price.
It will require a sale of Fourteen Thousand copies to defray
the expense which has been incurred in the preparation of
these beautiful editions of the Sacred Scriptures; and the
Publisher depends on a liberal and enlightened public to
assist him in an object which must be interesting to the
whole religious community.
