most distressing condition, who had become
debilitated from inflammatory affections OF
the lungs, such as pleurises, &c. where the
best medical aid had tailed to give any re.

few of them of the highest responsibility vol
unfairly for the good of those afflicted in the
same way, to give certificates showing the
extraordinary relief they had received from

be added, but the proprietors choose to let
