III. seHENcE,
DEAR SIR II feel II duty owe to you, and to
oil who are suffering under the diseases known as
Consumption and Liver Complaint, to lot them Know
what great benefits 1 have received from your Pul-
By the blessing of God It has cured me thus far.
DR.. Schenck will now make my statement 10
you, as follows About eighteen months ago was
attacked with q severe cough and 1t settled on my
lungs 1 could not retain anything ate, and suf-
fcred with evening fevcrs and night sweats was
very much reduced The whites of my eyes were
and unable to digest what did cat; bowels swollen
irregular and costive. was very low spirited, and
had such violent spells Of coughing when l laid
down at night and when arose in the morning that
they would last one or two hours.
then would be nearly exhausted, and was entire
Iy unable to lie on my left side. cannot describe
my wrctched suffering as would wish todo. Every
organ in my body was diseased or deranged. Such
was my situation at this time, and confined to
my bed from the last Of February 1852, not able to
cit up. 1 had the best of medical attendance the
whole of the time My cough was so very bad that
1t racked me very much. i at this time raised a
large quantity of thick, yellow, offensive matter,
sometimes with blood and it generally accompa-
MED by and furred and thick coated tongue.
At the time of coughing badly ] would have
sharp shooting pains in my left eide and heart, night
sweats and soreness all through my whole chest; had
much inward fever, pain in my back and under my
shoulder blades and in the small of my back, and
at times that it would throw me into
spasms. Now my physician gave me up to die.
Others had, and the best of them, but they could
do nothing for me, and at that time was nothing
but skin md bones. then was in the western part
Of Missouri In Jnne last we left there for the East
and in August last we came to New York, and was
so reduced that could only walk n little with my
husband help. After had been here short time
the salt water breeze made NE feel mucn oeter iof
time and then had again to call physician for aid.
We had four of the best physicians of New lork
on the diseases of the lungs and doctors of all kinds
but Of no avail. 4hy. id was past cure, aud that
my lungs too far gone COR any one to cure me-
Bat at this time was on my feet about the house,
not able to do much Of anything In November
last grew worse, and the consumption diarrhea
set in and lasted about eight weeks. We had tried
all and everything that could grasp at like dying
persen for my diseascs-consumpti and liver COM
plaint-but of no avail.
In January, 1868 was brought down again on
my bed, and not expected to live the night out.
Ny husband stayed at my side, and other friends,
and they all give me up 10 die. At this time every
one who saw me did not think l would leave my
bed a living woman. The first night was attacked
with spasms, and was deraDged most of the time.
A friend Mrs Harris, came to see the last of the
week. and brought the Sunday Mercury. In it
was an account OF great cure performed by DR..
Schenck. She read it to me, and ii was so much
like my own disease that asked my husband to 20
and see him for me. AT this time / had given up
all hopes of ever getting well again, and made my
peace with God, to be ready when He called for
me.
On the 9th of January, 1868, my husband called
on DR.. Schenck, 30 Bond street, New York. and
stated to him my case, with request for him to call
and see me, which he did, and examined me with
the respirometor. When he was about TO go ask ed
him if he could cure me? His reply was: 81 can
not tell both lungs are diseased, and the bronchial
tubes are affected on both sides. And yet he
seemed to think there were lungs enough left to ef
feet a cure if the diarrhea could be stopped lie
said in order TO do this, he would have to give Man
drake Pills in small doses at first, to carry of the
morbid matter, and them with astringents he hoped
TO check it, which he did, but the constant coughing
night sweats, and diarrhea had Frustrated so that
he was afraid my vital powers were too much pros
trated ever to rally, and yet he seemed to think if
could live to get enough Pulmonic Syrup through
my system to cause expecoration, there were lungs
enough left Tor me TO recover He wished me to try
the Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed Tonic at once
saying it would do me no harm, if it did me no good
The first week it seemed to give me strength, SO
that on Sunday after sat up in bed and ate hearty
FOR n sick woman but the next week lost all hope
and wished my husband not to give me any more
medicine But the doctor had warned him of this
and when the medicine clearing out the system
1t made them feel somewhat restless, and to perse-
we're; and he insisted on my taking il; and now
feel the benefit of it. For after eight days began
to gain strength, and with the exception of u cold
