Hghgate Spring, Nay IAN, 1867
While giving the Highgate Spring The benefit
of this notice, we think it duty, for the bene-
fit Of those afflicted with cancerous affections, to
commend the "Missisquoi Spring. at sheldon.
We know Of cases in our own neighhorhood, and
have heard of even more remarkable instances, in
which this water has been eiTcacous We have
heard that there are to be two public houses kept
near this spring the present summer, for the ac-
oommodation Of visitors. Those too III to visit
the spring, can order the water from the proprie-
tor at about the price as that Of Congress wa
iel BY the case.
