Lee, have. sent you the following account OF
che benefit have received from it, which
hope will induce others to give itatrial. In
consequence of bruise on tae breast received
f.om fall, my health grew bad, my breathing
became very difficult, and frequently Ihave
had suddenly to rise up in my bed with all the
horrors of immediate suffocation. Add to
these a constant pain in my breast and a cough,
q great loss of strength and flesh, and you may
conceive that my symptoms evidently indicated
an approx hing consumption. The advice of
most eminent physician was resorted to, and
afterwards ). second was called in, without giy-
ing me any relief. Another physician who
knew me and the circumstances of my case,
adyised me TO grve Hamilfon' EGq1r trial, say
ing, he had a4sed IL in Als practice, md alzuays
I found it do much good A bottle was procured
from Mr.. Birch's, and found relief before I
