Is found in practice to cure
Coughs, Colds, rheumatism, Group, Whoop
ing-cough, Hemorrhage, and Splitting Blood.
WAsHsGroN, March 6, l64l.
DEAR SIR Upon your renewed request, cannot,
with Justice any longer withhold from you my certi-
hcate Of confidence in the efficacy of the Life Pre-
server as cure for hoarseness and cough.
In the fall Of lS40 was much exposed to night
air, and often took cold, which was attended by
hoarseness and slight cough, without fever much
other indsposition. In December was scarcely ev-
er free from this complaint and during the early part
of the next February was never without some de-
gree of hoarseness cough until, desparing Of the
suifciency of Pease's Hoarhound Candy, and COM
mon remedies, was induced to make trial Of your
Life Preserver. Before the middle Of March last,
the use of your medicine seemed to be the great
cause of relief from the hoarseness and slight cough
which had so long annoyed me, and which all the
usual remedies had failed to remove.
If any one be led to make the experiment,
did SO happily, of the offered good he will at least
find in il as pleasant and harmless physic can be
administered in the mode prescribed by you.
lam, very respectfully yours,
JOHN LEEDS KERR.
Mr.. RICHARD THOMPSON.
