Sir,-I hereby give you a statement Of
my cnse, aud you are AT liberty 10 use il in n
ny manner you may think proper.
About four years ago became afflicted
with complicated case of Scrortin and
Whue Smelling during this period placed
myself under the care OF upwards OF eighteen
respectable physicians in Boston, Pitsbnrg,
Albany and this place, but their prescriptions
were in vain. My arm became useless, The
elbow jout being very much enlarged, and
so covered with ulcers, that my physician
fearing modification would take place, ad-
pised me 10 submit 10 dmpainiOa, but this re-
ieGted. On my back there Was an ulcer as
large "a the palm of my hand, which became
so painful that despaired OF ever being re-
stored to health, oreyen getting relief. Ha-
wing seen a similar case 10 my own which
was cured by your incniuabie CdihoGcon, AS
the last resort ! applied for it, and the happy
result is, from its use about three months
am perfectly cured, JOHN HEALY.
n. B. As AN about leaving the city, for
information as to the accuracy OF my case,
several gentlemen of high respectabiily may
be referred to.
