Swcrn statement Of David AcCreary. OF Napier
Township, Bedford county;
In April, 1856, as near as ! can remember, a
small pinple made its appearance on my upper lip,
which soon became enlarged and SORE. | used
poiices of sorrel, and wash of blue Ytriol, with
ont effect. Finding the sore extending, called on
Dr.. Ely, of Sehellsburg, who pronounced it CAN
GER, and prescribed wash OF sugar OF lead and
bread poulrices. Finding these remedies Of no
avail, | caiied upon DR.. Sbafer, Of DayidsTilie,
Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease
Cancer, and gave me internal and external remedies
the latter consisting principally Of canstie; but
all to no purpose, as the disease continued spread
ing toward the nose. ] next used preparation Of
arsenic, in the form OF salVe. This for time
checked the disease, but the inilmaiion soon in
creased. | next called upon Dr.. Sfatler OF ST.
Clairsrllc, Bedford county, who also pronounced
the disease Cancer, and applied salyc said 10 be a
never falling remedy, bur it had effect whatever
in checking the spread OF the sore. In December
Of the same ye0r. III disease aaG cat aWar q
