SACRAMENTO, April 80. 1865.
DR.. G. u Bourne Dear Sir 1t is with
pleasure and satisfaction that l now let you
know of my good health. Looking back
upon what have passed through, it seems as
il had been lifted from the grave, and l
think it my duty to acknowledge to you and
the world the benefit derived from water
treatment as administered by you in your
celebrated baths, It was in August 1864,
when disease developed itself with a severe
cough. | then took medicines. getting worse
with chills. fevers, loss of strength, and was
pronounced consumptive. This set ne to
thinking, ana finally determined to leave
my business and go 20 the Sandwich Islands.
having been Informed that | could not be
cured here. l went to San Francisco, end
while waiting for ship, called upon DR..
Bonrne, who stated that q trip to the Islands
would probably result disastrously. was who'll
ly unnecessary. as | could be speedily cured
at his establishment. placed myself under
his treatment, and in one week was so much
improved that could risk returning home
and do my duty as Engineer on the Central
Pacific Railroad. The Doctor objected. but |
thought knew better, aud returned to duty
In about two weeks NY cough returned. and
| kept getting worse. and cor; .ary to Dr.
Bourne;s injunction never 10 take medicine
again, committed that folly, and soon was so
| completely run down that / could scarcely
walk; SO, as a last resort, concluded to try
| the Water Cure once more. [ went to San
| Francsco-few OF my friends expecting me
to return. In fact, 1 thought my return doubt

ment. tFebruary II, 1862 was not able to
get into the bath without assistance, but in a
few days began to recover myself again

every day, and AT present bid fair TO be stout

much in praise OF the Doctors kind attention
to his patients.
