Sir: have made full and satisfactory test Of
the Spectscles procured from you, and l have
the pleasure to say that the glasses are better
adapted to my eyes than any have ever used.
The facilities with which you fitted the glass to
my eye furnished me conclusive evidence Of
your thorough experience as an Oculist.
Your attachments in your profession entitle
you to the confidence, patronage and gratitude
Of the public.
I have tho honor to be very respectfully
yours, JAM Els l.. ORR,

Prof Bernhsrdt:-1 owe you debt Of graft
tude for the benefit you hsve rendered me. For
many years ! have been accustomed to use
glasses when reading or writing, and always
with pain, more or less, to my eyes. You have
relieved me from sll inco nvenence. I csn now
read and write for sll hours without. any pain,
and can see objects distant and near through
the same glasses with clearness and distinctness
that have not experienced since my youth.
am gratefully yours,
JOSEPH h. PLUNKETT,
