decided from the Of electrical baths, given
by Dr. Westervelt have thought it due 10 those SINH
larry situated with myself to make this publication

baths but the benefit derived from them has been
positive that could be mistaking the cause
! am now able 10 use my fingers and my arms, which
were entirely helpless, almost not quite, as well as
ever.

be relieved from the state Of helpessness in
short time since. JOHN ADAMS.
