In answer TO the above, would say am
familiar with all the above different theories,
and would appropriate them to the full ex
tent Of their merits, and would be thankful
for all the knowledge they impart. In re-
gard TO the Indians. would say have spent
some number Of months with each of several
different tribes, and have gained much val
liable knowledge of their medical skill by SO
doing. The art of healing among the Ind-
dians consints in the application of simples;
such as roots, barks, buds, leaves, gums and
blossoms, in the virtue Of which they are
surprisingly skilled The Indians have a
degree of Botanical knowledge that surpri-
ses European. They are, in general, and
at very early age, acquainted not only with
the names, but the qualities and properties,
of every shrub and herb among that exuber-
ant variety with which their country abounds.
They believe the Good Spirit (God) has
caused shrub or plant to grow which will
cure every disease the human family is sub
iect to. 1would say my theory and practice
of medicine are composed of the knowledge
have gained of the above different theories,
combined with the practical knowledge I
have gained by having under treatment or
examination over 1900 patients that have
been afflicted with diseases of chronic char
acter, and among that great number have
had patients laboring under ali OF the great
variety Of diseases the physical organization
is subject to, and have successfully treated
great number Of cases that have been given
up as hopeless by some Of the most eminent
/ physicians Of North America Therefore
/ feel justified in saying to all afflicted with
chronic diseases that Notwithstanding your
case may have been of long standing, even
/ 10 Or 20 years, and you have had the treat
| ment and counsel Of those regarded as the
most eminent Of the profession, and your
case given over by them as hopeless, and
their opinion endorsed by your own, notwith-
standing all of this which, admit, makes a
strong case, | should be inclined to agree
with you if | had not had success in that
class of cases. And the persons now enjoy
! inc health-liying witnesses of the facts
after having given up all hopes of ever being
again free from disease until death should
come as their deliver. have been success
