Mrs, H. Lee, widow of Richard Lee, ]r.
Being desirous to make public for the good
of others the excellent quality OF Hamilton's
Elixir, prepared by the late Mr.. Lee, have
sent you the following account of the benefit
have received fromsit; which | hope will
induce others to give it trial. In conse-
ouence of a bruise on the breast received
from fall, my health grew bad, my breathing
became very difficult, and frequently have
had suddenly to rise up in my bed with all the
horrors of immediate suffocation. Add to
these, constant pain in my breast, and
cough, a great loss of strength and flesh, and
YOU may conceive that my symptoms evident
" indicated an approaching consumption. -
The advice of most emincnt ply stefan was
!. resorted to, and afterwards asecond was CALI
: ed in, but without giving me any relief. A.
mother physician, who knew me and the CIR
5. camstances of my case, advised me to give
IIamilton's Elixir trial, saying. he had used
J, it in his practice,and always found 1t do much
good. A bottle was procured from MIR. Blrch's
and found relief before had taken half of
! it. continued to use 1t. and was soon strong
enough to attend to business. On taking cold
some of my former symptoms return, but are
always removed by a dose or two of the E
lixir, &
No..ll, Budd-strect, Philadelphia:
mr. Charles Myers, Hamstcad-Hill,s near
Baltimore, had been long time dangerously
inGisposed and was reduced TO the lowest
state of weakness, insomuch that his recovery
appeared extremely doubtful. His complaints
wh;cb seemed TO be affections of the breast
and lungs, and general debility accustomed
thereby, Yielded little, but rather progressed
rnder the treatment of several eminent ply
sicians; when by the use sof Hanilton's +
lixir, his distressing cough was Immediately
alleviatcd, and every other symptom perfectly
.subdued. Four or FIVE bottles entirely re-
!. moved his complaints and restored him to an
excellent state of health and strength, which
he has for upwards of ear past. enjoyed
without interruption.

. S3 7 comply with your request In stating my
,on;nion of Hamilton's Elixir. 1t has been us
ed in nv family fer two or three years past,
with uniform success, whenever coughs,colds,
or similar complaints have rendered ,medi-
cine necessary. I have myself foundit an ex-
'cellent and agreeable remedy for a very pain
e,,l and troublesome affection of the breast, &C.
.companied with soreness, and with obstructed
!. and difficult breathing.
On4hese accounts i do not hesitate to re-
romraend Hamilton,s Elixir as a valuable me-
slicine, and deserving public attention.
