yet despsed the miseres Of my life, and learned
to look upon those who would render assistance
shelter me from danger, rs enemies who sought to
prolODg the existence Of my mseries. While in this
state, and having, previous TO my aliction tasted
the sweets Of life, once more was induced to attempt
seeking aid Of physician, and by recommendation

services regardless Of which, however, he a once
undertook my case, aed with the blessings of God
more restored to perfect health. Unable to
reward him for the boon which enjoy at present.

find physician in whom every confidence can be
