DEPARTMENT OF INTERIOR, May. 1855
From natural defects ard the unequal range OF
my eyes, have been compelled TO use glasses .or
several years. 1 have tiled different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted TO my
eyes. -Four months since Mr. Tobias made two
pairs especially for rs, which have found &c
serve nle perfectly. By The Use Of his optornete'
he is enabled to adapt Glasses Eainu:elytc tleeys
1 most cheerfully recommend MIR Tobias 10 al
having occasion 10 use glasses and bear my testi
Iony as 20 his skiG ss sn opticiaI.
