your Institute with my constitution, thought, entire
broken and never thought you would be able to
perfectly but thought you might be able to do something
to the pain my back and head and strengthen my
limbs, which were weak that they would almost give
way under me when walked and to strengthen my
that | would not get excited and tremble at
every little thing. Now that you know what expected,
you may Judge of my satisfaction at my complete
cry from those symptoms, and the removal Of those
sploches and from my skin and the ulcers from my
throat and the entire stoppage of those emissions which
you said principally the of my sickness. can
hardly tell you which is the greatest my joy or my sur

well as any can feel
Enclosed send you twenty dollars over your charge
and think myself cheaply cured If you think anybody
