Mr., w. w. Potter,

Mr.. w. w, Potter,
Sir,-I hereby give you statement OF
nv case, and you are at liberty To use II IN a
ny manner you may think proper.
About four years ago became afflicted
with a complicated case OF Scroftta and
Hhite Sueiiing; during this period placed
myself under the care of upwards OF eighteen
respectable physicians in Boston, Pittsburg,
Albsny and this place, but their prescriptions
were in vain. NV arm became useless, the
elbow Joint being very much enlarged, and
so covered with ulcers, that my physician
fearing modification would take place, an
rised me to submitto dmputatt0n, but this re-
iected. On my back there was an ulcer as
large a. the palm of my hand, which became
% painful that despaired of ever being re-
stored to health, or even getting relief. Ha-
wing seen "a similar case TO my own which
was cured by your ipoaiuabte Calhoiicon, As
the last resort applied for IT, and the happy
result is. from its use about three months
am perfectly cured. JOHN HhALf.
N. h. Ash am about leaving the city, for
information as 10 the accuracy OF my case,
several gentlemen of high responsibility may
be referred to.
