Dr. L1GHEHILL-DcGr Sir: Under date

resort TO your treatment and its beneficial
results.
I have been, from the winter oftbe year
1874, subject to violent periodical attaci
Of catarrh, marked by febrile syptoms. vio-

had tried medicines and applications
OF various kinds; snuffs and other cstarrb.
al preparations OF some half 3 dozen kinds
applications TO the head of camphoE.
ginger and hot fermentation of different
kinds; and in connection with these the
usual emetics and csthsrtics employed TO
induce counter action. But none of these
had produced any permanent improve
mentI snd in the few instances in which
temporal relief was afforded, il was at the
expense Of so much strength as to leave
me greatly exhausted. Under these cir
cumstances l was led, though with some
reluctance. FROM the supposed i~ncurability
OF the disease TO make q trial of your
treatment. l found it soon beyond v q
my hopes, reaching the disease as Il had
never been reached before, and alIevistinp
its symptoms to an extent which 1 had
supposed impossible. At the time when
gave you my former certificate, while l
did not feel assured of 3 complete cure /
had obtained q material relief which Amplv

a substantial escape from nv
old attacks Of catarrh, for the almost nm.
.precedented period of nearly half g year
and that in spite of severe attacks Of i'll
ness, which would have formerly rendered
Iueh an occurrence inevitable, was, to me.
proof of an important success. It is now
tx months since l sent you that statement
md while it is unpleasant for me to appear
hus constantly, and in this guise, before

lie justice to yourself and TO those Whe

~ case q substantial cure has BEN effect. ).
