Great Excitement in Wales
about a Marvellous Cure.
Living Six Years without
Going to Bed.

MR.. ED1T0R:--N hllc spending lew
days AT the pleasant scUsidc Town If
Aberystwitb, Carol 4anuhiic, Wales,
heard related whai seemed 10 me either
II fabulous story on marvellous cure.
The story was thai poor suilirtr who
had not been able to lie down in led for
six long years, given tlpio die by I'll the
Doctors, had been speedily cured hy
some Patent Medicine. 1t was teaird
with the more implicit confidence from
the circumstance, Us WAS suid, that the
Vicar of Llanrystyd was iamiljHr with
the facts, and could vOuCh for the truth
of the report.
Having II little curiosity to know how
such stories grow in travelling, | took
the liberty while at the Village oi | lan-
rystyd to call upon the Vicar, the hcV.
T. Evans, and to enquire about This
wonderful cure. Though n to al siian-
ger to him, both he and his wife most
graciously entertained me in half
hours conversation. principally touching
the case of Mr.. Pugh, in which they
seemed to take deepand sympathetic
interest, having been familiar with his
sufferings, and now reioiccd in what
seemed 10 them most remarkable cure.
The Vicar remarked that he presumed
his name had been connected with the
report from his having mentioned the
case to Mr.. John Thomas, Il chemist of
Lanon. He said Mr.. Pugh was former.
ly resident of their parish, but was now
living in the parish of !anddeinol.
He strongly vouched Mr.. VIM. Pugh's
character as a respectable farmer and
worthy of credit. | left the venerable
Vicar with livelier sense of the happ!

that he was one who truly sympaihised

On my return to Aberystwith, was
impressed with Il desire to see Mr.. Pugh,
whose reputation stood 50 high. His
farm is called Pancom-M -Mawr, signifying
"ahove the dingle," situated near the
summit of smooth round hill, over
looking beautiful valley in which is
situated the lovely ivymantled Church
of Llanddeinol. / found Mr.. Pugh,
apparently about DO years old, of medium
height, rather slight, with Il pleasant and
intelligent face. told him had heard
of his great atfliction and of his remark
able and almost miraculous relief, and
that l had come to learn from his own
lips, what there was of truth in the re-
ports
Mr.. Pugh remarked that his neigh,
bors had taken kindly and symp-

his condition. What you report as hav.
ing heard abroad, said he, is substant
tally true. with one exception. never
understood that my case was ever given
up as hopeless by any Physician. L
have been treated by several Doctors
hereabouts, as good as any in Wales, but
unfortunately no prescription of theirs
ever brought the desired relief.
Fifteen years ago, he said, first be-
came conscious of Il sour and deranged
stomach and loss of appetite, which the
Doctors told me was Dyspepsia What
food l could hold in my stomach SEEM
ed to do me no good and was often
thrown up with painful retchings. This
was followed after time with II hoarse-
ness and u raw soreness of the throat
which the Doctors called bronchitis,
and | was treated for that, but with
little success Then came shortness OF
breath and sense of suffocation, espe.
cially nights, with clammy sweat, and /
would have to get out of bed and some
times open door or window in winter
weather to fill my lungs with the cold
air.
About six years ago became so had
that could not sleep in bed, but had to
take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep
sitting in an armchair. My atf1iclion

my abdomen would expand and collapse
