My Dear DIR. Mortimore, Bailey's Springs,
Ala Il feel 1t to be my duty, as well as my
privilege and pleasure, TO give YOU this testmo-
NAL OF my high appreciation OF your skill a
ply stefan, and your integrity as man. Having
experienced great advantage from your treat
ment, both prior to and since my recent inju-
Hes, have reason to know Of what write.
have also been cognizapt of the great relief
afforded to others by your treatment and RENE
dies. have seen those who had been long and
severely afflicted, rejoicing with returning
health.
In thetreatmento all forms of Chronic Dis
ease, am sure YOU have few equals and no su-
periors. 1 may say that have seen your skill
tested In some severe chronic cases Of rheuma-
tlsn, snd Protracteu ard extreme cases of fe-
male diseases, and always with honor 10 yonr.
self and benefit TO the sufferer.
To say that you can cure all cases " disease
that flesh Is heir to, would be to make YOU rsore
than human. But l do say that should .yOs.
make the effort and fail to cure, others neednot
try. s s II TIT
During my own extreme suffering from the
terrible fracture of my leg, found you the
klno friend, the sklllful physician, and the
courteous gentleman.
As your profession often calls you away from
home among strangers, it is but justice to you
to say that during weeks of frequent inter-
course, during which time you have been a
constant visitor atmy house, your department
has not only been unexceptionable, but has
been that Of a refined Christian gentleman.
Your grateful friend, R.H. RIVERS.

DIR. d. MortIInere--My Dear Sir:--Learnlna
that you design visiting various cities in the
south during the present winter, / deem il
duty which owe TO you, and the afflicted, as
well as high privilege to myself, to add my
testimony TO that of other men whom gratitude
has compelle to speak so highly Of your ability
as physician, and your virtues as a social
Christian gentleman.
l, having charge OF a greatly afflicted wife,
met you last summer at Bailey's Springs, Ala
where you were called to treat MANY extreme
cases OF chronic disease. was little disposed
to tamper with the lifeof my wife by subject
ing her to the medical treatment Of a stranger:
put IN neT DIRE extremity, knowing that the
pest Efforts Of other eminent physicians as also
tne use OF mineral waters, had failed to give
relief, and that my own mother had recently
died Of the same malady, and hearing SO many
o. tne visitors there speak in the strongest terms
IN behalf Of your unequalled success in the
treatment OF Female Diseases, was induced
TO employ you in her behalf The result was
that you almost instantly relieved her extreme
sunerlng, and within two months restored her
70 perfect health. And by so doing, have placed
me under obligations which can never repay,
but which, thank God, shall never feel IN n
burthen to bear.
Mrs. ID. joins me i'm this expression of graft.
tuoe, ana you may number us both with your
warmest advocates.
st- Very truly yours,
