FROM Rxv. FRED. 8. JEWELL, PROFESSOR OF
sTATE EoRHAL SCHOOL, Albany, N. T
DR.. LigktLiIE:
DEAR SIR: Under date of March I4th I
sent you careful statement of my case,
my former treatment, my failure TO obtain
relief in that direction, my resort to your
treatment and its beneficial result.
I have been, since the winter of 1914
subject TO violent periodical attacks of ca
tarrh, marked by febrile symptoms, vio-
| lent Inflammation of the lining mem
branes of the cavities of the head, accom-
! panied in the first stages by Watery dis
! charge from the nose, subsequently beeom-
| ing acrid and yellow, and toward the close
| Of the attack, purient and bloody. These
| attacks produced most distressing species
Of headache occurring periodically each
| day for period varying from one to three
/ weeks, sometimes so violent as to wholly
/ incRpacitate me for business, and cOntine
me to bed. At times the attendant inham-
nation would extend to the teeth, oc-
| casiOning tOothache, or to the throat,
| producing hoarseness and partial loss OF
| voice; and twice within the last few years
it has so affected the left eye as to con6ne
me for weeks to darkened room.
had tried medicines and applications of
various kinds; snuffs and other catarrhal
preparations of some half a dozen kinds
applications to the head of camphOr, GIN
ger and hot lamentations of different kinds 4:
/ and in connection with these the usual
emotics or catharties employed to induce
counter action. But none of these had
produced any permanent Improvements, and
in the few instances in which temporal re-
lief was afforded it was at the expense of
so much strength as to leave me greatly ex-
hausted. Under these circumstances l was
led, though with reluctance, from the sup
posed incurability of the disease, to make
a trial Of your treatment. 1 found it soon
even beyond my hopes, reaching the dis
ease as 1t has never been reached before,
and alleviating its symptoms to an extent
which had supposed impossible. At the
time I gave you my former certificate,
while did not feel assured of plete
cure, 1 had obtained a material re.
lief which amply repaid me for my
trial of your treatment, and which salts
fed me at that treatment was as effective
as it was simple and philosophical. A sub
stantiaI escape from my old attacks OF ca
tarrh, for the unprecedented period Of near
ly half year, and that in spite of severe
occurrences Of illness which would have
formerly rendered such an attack newt
able, was to me, proof of an Important sue
cess. 1t is now six months since l sent you
that statement, and, while it is unpleasant
10 me 10 yIsaar thus constantly, and in
this guise, before the public, IL seems to me
a matter of simple justice to yourself, and
tothose who may be suffering as 1 was, to add
that am not only as fully satisfied as to the
utility and efficacy ofyOur method Of treat
ing catarrh as l was six months ago, but |
am now of the belief that if there is such q
thing as a cure for chronic catarrh, in nv
case substantial cure has been effected.
Yours, respectfully,
FREDERICE S. JEWELL
ALBANY, N Y, Sept. 1, 1864.
