! sMr.J. w. Whitmore7-Dear Sir--As you are the
regular authorized agent in Dayton, for the sale of
| sDr Wistdr's Balsam of Wild Cherry takesthis
method of making statement OF facts to you(which
hope will be published to the worldly ia refer
ence to an almost miraculous cure wrought in smy
case by means of the most invaluable Basam.
Language fails to describe the salutary effects il
produced, and the great benefit derived from its
| use.
The citizens of DAYTON and vicinity, well reco-
lect that on the 9Th of August last, received Sc
| rious injury from the explosion OF cannon. A
portion of its contents entered my right side and
bleast; and in all probability some fragments or
splnters Of the ramrod passed through the 'plura,
and pierced the lungs.
After The lapse OF about SIX weeks, i was attacked
with distressing cough and violent pain in my
right side Some ten days after this, when in
paroxysm of coughing, suddenly an ulcer broke
and large quantity OF very offensive natter mix
ed with blood, was discharged;most of which found
passage through the opening OF the wound, From
this opening there frequently passed quantity of
air. supposed to issue from the lungs During all
this time my sufferings were almost intoerable
| Nv physicians meanwhile, paid the strictest at
| tention to me- and did all in their power for my
recovery But with all their skill, they could not
reach the seat of distress, after the lungs had be-
come affected. | was visited during this time, by
at least twenty physicians.
1t was now reduced to certainty, that infam-
nation of the lungs was rapidly taking place; and
| 4 Efa IN shn
time, was in the highest degree probable
AT this critical stage "a messenger was despatched
to Cincinnat.and celebrated physician of that ci-
ty was consulted. When he was made acquainted
with my situation, he remarked that nothing could
be done by medical aid, if the constitution itself
was not enough to throw off the disease.
My friends now dispaired of my recovery and |
had no earthly ground of hope to survive many
days Fortunately lat this juncture saw one DR..
Wistar's Pamphlets, entitled Family Medical
Guide or Treatise on consumption OF the Lungs
As had often heard of dying men catching at
straws,' | felt like doing so myself By the consent
of my physicians, sent to you for bottle of the
medicine described, viz: WIstar's Basam of Wild
Cherry; which relieved me Immediately. After /
had used some five or six bottles so far recovered
as to be up and about. My cough ceased and my
lungs were restored to healthy stateall from the
heaIlng and balmy influence, and powerful med-
canl virtues of Wlstar's Balsam
Were il not from the external injury received
in my shoulder and arm; by the explosion, feel
confident that might have been working at my
trade, (Which is backsmithing,) but this was pre-
vented.
By exposure, | have since taken several severe
colds, and my only remedy has been 'the Balssm.'
And now / most cordially recommend the Genu'
ipe Wistar's Balsam TO all whn are afflicted With
colds, coughs or lung complaints. consider it an
invaluable medcine-a real be sing to the world.
Any person desiring further information, may call
on me at any time. Yours, truly,
