From Gov. Tucker,

For the benefit of suffering humanity, as well as
an act of justice 10 DR.. SAMUEL GILBERT, |
make the following statemen,:-Tba in June last
| had a small tnmor upon my face. rather between
my nose and cheek, which gradually increased dur
ing the past summer in size and extent: on accoun
of which | consulted several truly eminent physi-
clans. under whose treatment | received no benefit.
IN The latter part of last January visited New Or
leans. In The space Of seven days, before reaching
the CITY, the tnmor had greatly enlarged and the
Inflammation increased to an alarming extent: so
much 50, that from the inner corner of my eve to
the end of my nose, and out to my cheek bone, be<
came literally a limp of pntrid flesh. The disease
had also made It's appearance on The opposite side
OF my nose. In this condition l presented myself
TO DIR. Samuel Gilbert, not knowing with what dis
ease l was afflicted. DR.. Gilbert promptly pro.
nonnced it an eating Cancer of the most viruIent
character. | put myself under his treatment. He
extracted The tnmor without the use of the knife,
and in four weeks my face was well, As I then and
still believe. r. NJ. TUCKER.
