Sworn statement Of David McCreary, of Napier
Township, Bedford county:
In April 1856 as near as ! can remember, e
small pimple made its appearance on my upper lip.
which soon became enlarged and sore. ! used
potices of sorrel, and wash of blue yitriol with
out effect. Finding the sore extending, called on
Dr. Ely, of Schelisbnrg, who pronounced it CAN
GER, and prescribed wash Of sugar OF lead and
bread poultices. Finding these remedies of no
avail, called upon DR.. Shaffer, of DavidsFille,
Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease
Cancer and gave me internal and external remedies
the latter consisting principally of caustc; 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 inflammation soon in
creased. / next called upon DIR. Statler Of st.
Clairsv:lle Bedford county, who also pronounced
the disease Cancer, and applied saye said to be
never failing remedy, but it had no effect whatever
in checking the spread of the sore. In December,
of the same year, the disease bad eaten awav a
greater part OF my upper lip, and had attacked tle
nose, when went to Cincinnati, where consulted
Prof X. S. Newton, of the Electc Medical College
He pronounced the disease cutaneous Cancer

He applied mild zinc ointment, and gave internsl
remedies. My face healed up, but the inflammation
not thoroughly removed. In FEBRUARY. 1855 .
he pronounced me cured, and left for home In
April the disease again returned and violent was
the pain that could not rest st night. Late in
May l retGrned 10 CncisHsti, and agaia placed

checking the disease, but when | returned home

all hope OF ever being cured; since DR.. Ely said ne
could only give relief but that cure was inpos-
siLle. In March, 1858, bought 4 botrle OF Blood

it; but found that gained strength day by day,
and also thai tue ulcers commenced drying up. !

face was healed as if By miracle. | used a forth
bottle, and have been healthier since than have
been for the last seven years. Although my face
