T rTrRR from the honorable a. C Haufonl Erq.
Il Chancellor of the fate of Maryland. I, the |
Editor OF the Maryland Gazette.
For the good of the public, as well a, from |
delire to do jultiee to man OF merit and genius,
| reaueif you to publlh the following cafes.
A Young man IN my family. who had read DR.. |
Hamilton's advertisement, and who had Tor
fon,e time as he fays. experienced the fymptoms
delcribed by the Doelory indicating the pre-
fence OF worms in the human fomach or nter.
tines, retolved without coufulting any perfon
whatever, totry the doSlor's remedy.
He accordingly procured box of the Lozen-
ges. Iai evening he took a OF the yellow, and
this morning he took an equal number Of the
brown kind They did not, as he fays, operate
harihly except one lOol, when he felt conlide
rable gripping, and whsn there came from him
wormJ perfectly white, about yard in length, as
broad as his tile finger, and having number Of
joints about an inch or 4 La Of an inch diaanl
from each other.
Beiides this worm, he fays there came from him
comfortable number OF Rat worms. about 3-A of
an inch in lengthy ard neatly the fame in breadth.
He did not think of counting them, but he lays
there were more than twenty
OF feeirg the tape worm the yOung man not hav.
ing, as he ought TO have done, taken mesiures for
Preferving il, and the fmPle iervanr girl who
attended his chamber, having, before had heard
Of his t1king the medieine, thrown il and the o.
Their worms into the neceGarX not thinking il of
confequence to take care OF them. The girl, how
ever, and another fcrvant concuts with him re
fpeaing the worms which apPeas ed in the venel,
and the tape worm, they fay, was alive 70 FAR
to have motion, alter it came from him.
1t is needless to deieribe his symptoms, as lie
fays they were exactly fueh ate delcrtbed by
the Do9Or.
Another Young man of my family also, without
any combination or advice one evening and morn.
ingI smc3 tbounthS go, took Lozenges, which
operated powerfully. No worm came from him |;
bur in the eourfc of 4 or three days he was quite
well ard Aas Enee had comfortable aecelion
OF aefh aud flrength.
In hortJ although :, like many others, have
been inereduious with relpe6 TO the virtue Of
Hamilton's Lozenge5 am at length perfectly
eonvinted of their great efficacy and utility.
As / cannot reafonablJ be fuPpofed TO have any
motive except confederation for public good, for
publifhing thefe cafes, hatter rayelf that hall
rot incur ridi=ule or c:nfure from unthinkins
men, FOR adding my feeondhand teitimony 10 the
evidence oil the numerous respectable characters
who have aimed to render jultice to DR. IIaHnlton
with whom have not the 1ighteit acquaintsnee)
and to give ;mpcrtans information to their fellow
creatures.
! think it not amifs to add, that from the
healthy appearance of the young man, who has
been 70 greatly and quickly relieved, ihould
have rdiculed his fymptons and approximations
had he communicated them TO me before he took
the Lozenges-T The faa, T am perfusded, is, that
mon yeung perlons, who are from time to time,
dilotdertd without viible or apparent cauGe, are
