DR. Lawson-ST: Having been informed that you
have, during the last year past pres cribed in your
practice Dr.. Sherwoods Electro Magnetic Remedies,
i'll upwards OF hty cases, ali Of which CHRONIC
DISEASES including Scroiua, with great success take
the liberty OF making the inquiry of you whether my
informant was justified in making such report from
your own admission of the fact?
you confirm this report should consider it duty
we owe to the OF humanity give il publicity
as much as possible; and, false, should disabuse
the public mind of the imposition.
Dr. S also chal enges investigations to the electro
gelyanic symptoms. Please ino rm me you, in your
practice detect diseases by this method OF examination.
Respectfully, B. w.
Dear Sir Your communication of the 23d inst was
duly received, and answer should promptly
have been given but for the want of leisure hour, and
DOUBT resting my mind In regard TO the pfopristy
OF noticing anonymous letters.
Nothing, now, much influences to accedet to
your wish as conviction of the Importance OF the
'acts which you wish to elicit from me, ard thereby to
dtfuse hem more generally through society.
have perfect detesalion OF everything that has
been presented to the world in the form OF what has
been ge orally denominated "quack medicines" and
on this account have always elt delcacy in appen-
ding my name or giving my influence to anything
which may Justly be dubbed" with such appella-
ton.
In the case of DR.. Sherwood's Remedies, am some.
what relieved from this difficulty, from consdera-
tons: hrst, from the stubborn fact that, in my own
person, derived the most decided beneficial effects
from their use, and Mt time when all other means
were pronounced az incompetent to a cure; and, in the
second place, from being myself pretty well acquant-
ed with the composition of the "Remedles.'
These two facts will serve apology for me in
canddly expressing my opinion with regard to the
dcine. Ii did not believe that thousands suf-
terng from diseases incurab!e under any her system
OF practice. and certainly durable under this, would
not dare to offer word in favor OF Sherwoods Re

peor, in chronic diseases, to any course at present
known to the medical profession.

and generally with success. [ am, however, OF the
opinion that in advanced stages of pulmonary
sumption they not etfeclual would be led
to suppose from reading DR.. Sherwood's pa implicit.
In almost every other form OF sctotula they have
surpassed my most sangune expectations. There are
many citizens OF Cincinnati who will certify to
in certain cases. OF long standing which not bene-
fitted from course VIII Oh had been pursued land in
these you know everything is tried that is heard
of;) and their certificates will be OF sufficient variety,
too to prove all that is claimed for them, even by Dr.

above.

that they nalibe; that is not my meaning nor lm-
pression concerning anything on this earth; but do
believe them to be efectua in curing chronic dsea-

diseases of climate Unjust be understood to have

which was made, and again referred to-
With regard to the symptoms, L believe that they
cannot be gainsayed. | detect, with the greatest
certainty the diseases called by Dr. Sherwood scrofua,
without any previous knowledge OF the patient, or of
the history of his disease; and this do merely by
examination of the cervca glands and spinal column.
The ordinary course OF feeling he pulse, locking at
the tongue, and asking hundred questions, more or
less is both useless and waste of time. do not think
that skilled in this mode of examination can be

great saving of time, and much more satsactoryre
suit. This is much as deem it now necessary to
communicate. Yours, &c. B. S. LAWSON.
