Sworn statement Of David McCreary, Of Napier
Township, Bedford county,
In April, 1856. as near as | can remember, a
small pimpe made its appearance on my uf,per Iiu
which soon became enlarged and sore. / used
poItices of sofrel, and wash of blue vitfol, with
out effect. Finding the sore extending, called on
Dr. Ely, of Scheleburg, who pronounced it CAN
GER, and prescribed wash Of sugar Of lead and
bread ponhices. Finding these remedies of no
avail, called upon DIR. Shafier, of DavidsYille,
Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease
Caucer and gave internal and external remedies
the latter consisting principally of caustic; but
all to no purpose, the disease continued spread
ing toward the nose. / next used preparation Of
arsenic. in the form OF salve. This for a time
checked the disease, but the inflammation soon in
creased. / next called upon DIR. StatIer Of ST.
ClairsYsLe, Bedford county, who also pronounced
the Gisease Cancer, ard applied salye said to be a
never falling remedy, bur ii had no effect whatever
in checking the spread of the sore. In December

all hope OF being cured since DR.. Ely said he
could only give relief but that a curo was mpos-

in it. / was very weak when | commenced taking
