Messrs. JosLIN & RowE:-At your request
herewith transmit to you statement of the case Of
tIrs. Winner and child, as near as am able TO COM
mun.cata, which you are at liberty topublsh you
see ut, as feel desire 20 inform the wcrd of the
effects Of the invaluable medicine called Wstar's
Balsam Of Wild Cherry to which, by the divine
blessing, ain indebted for the restoration 70 health
of my wife and child.
About five years ago, Mrs. Winner was attacked
with violent cough, pain in the chest and side,
and symptoms Of approaching consumption. Dur
ing the intervals from that time 10 sometime in
February last, she lad been treated by eminent
Physicians from Utica, Syvania, Homer, Chat
ha, and Newark ,and with only partial relief of tie
most urgent symptoms. About one year ago, she
caught violent cold, which seated upon the Lungs,
producing an alarming aggrayaticn OF al her pre-
vious symtons. Her Physician was sent for, and
despite lis best efforts, she began rapidly to sink
Under hev dsease. Cough, Exrectoratlon Hectic,
together with night sweats, soon reduced her 10
colnp.ate skeleton. In February last, her attend
ing Physician, deemed her case altogether hopeless,
council was called, and after deliberating upon
her case unanimously pronounced her to be beyond
the reach of means, and expressed their opinion
that she could su,7ve but short time, one or two
weeks at farthest. She was at this time entirely
confined to her bed, AMI scarcely able to ar,icu-
late, except in whisper. Her daily paroXysms Of
coughing would last her unin;eruptedly from to
hours, and so severe were they, that we did ex-
pect that every paroxysm would be the last The
physicians in council pronounced her Lungs. Liy-
err, Kidneys, Spine, and Mucus Membrane of the
Stomach to be incurably diseased. 1t was at this
last extremity that we happened to obtain pam
phlet describing Dr.. Wistar's Balsan of Wild
Cherry as applicable to Lung Affections We i'm
mediate!y sent to you and procured bottle, and
commenced its use at evening by giving her one
teaspoon full, and such the surprising effect,
that she was able to pass comfortable nights resi-
without experiencing any paroXysm of coughing,
and such its ultimate effect, that after taking
five bottles she was, contrary to the expectations
of her physicians, aud every one who saw her, en-
trey restored TO health; and since last summer has
done the entire work of her family. After the last
attack of Mrs. Wiraer, our youngest child, then
infant at the breast was taken down, and rapidly
sinking with the same symtoms as its mother, and
seeing the happy effect of the Balgam in the case
of the mother, we were disposed to make trial oft
for the child, and it was attended with the same
perfect success.
The above statement can be attested by our ply
scian as we'll as our neighbors and acquaintances,
who saw Mrs. Winner during the course Of her
sickness ..
