PHILADELPHIA, August 23rd 1862.
MesSrs. Jones tr EUaHS.-WeH, gentlemen, your
Hoofand's German Bitters has saved my life.
There is mistake in this. 1t is yOuched for
bynumbers of my comrades, some ofwhose names
are appended, and who were fully cognizant of
all the circumstances of my case. L am, and
have been tor the last four years, member of
Sherm ans celebrated battery and under the i'm
mediate command of Capt. B. Ayres. Through
the expo sure attendant upon my duties, 1
attacked in November last with Inflammation of
the lungs. and was for seventy two days in tn
hospital This was followed by great debility,
heightened by attack of fdysentery. 1 was then
removed from the White House. and sent TO this
city on board the Steamer estate of Maine from
which L landed on the 18th of June. Since that
time have been about as low any could
be and still retain spark of vitality. For
week or more was scarcely able to swallow any
thing, and if did force morsel down, it was
Immediately thrown up again.
L could not even keep glass of water my
stomach. Life could not last under these circum-
stances; and, accordingly, the physicians who
had been working faithfully, though unsuccess
fully, to me from the grasp of the dread
Archer, frankly told they could do more
for me- and advised me to see clergyman. and
to make such disposition of limited funds
best suited me. An acquaintance who visited me
at the hospital, Mr. Frederick Steinborn of Sixth
below Arch Street, advised me- as a forlorn hope.
to try your Bitters, and kindly procured bottle.
From the time I commenced taking them the
gloomy shadow of death receded, and 1 am now
thank God for it, getting better. Though have
taken but two bottles, have gained ten pounds,
and feel sanguine of being permitted to reioin
my wife and daughter, from whom L have heard
nothing for eighteen mouths for. gentlemen,
am loyal Firginian, from the vicinity of Front
Royal. To your invaluable Bitters owe the
tainty of life which has taken place of vague fears
Ito your Bitters will owe the glorious privi-
iege of again clasping to my bosom those who are
dearest to in life.
Very truly yours, ISAAC MALONE.
