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"--I 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
i
Agent, and so well known n 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, 1840.
" 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 ls. 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,
" L. S. BREWER."

To Vim. 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. HACKETT.
Mr. Banister, Surgeon, 2, Cross-court, Broad-street.

To W. Grirastone, Esq., 39, Broad-street.
" 10th December, 1840.
" SIR,-1 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
