This may certify that, having been afflicted
during the year 1856 with severe and almost
total deafness. and having tried the ordinary
medical ard surgical aid, under the care Of
those esteemed az eminent practitioners, was
induced at last TO put myself under the care of
Dir. L. Is. Lshthill. His treatmen. was brief
and successful. l was completely restored,
and the cure is apparently permanent. Ihave
all confidence in DR.. LIS Skill aud integrity in
the diseases he makes spec.alities.
