While suffering thus | received a call from
my pastor, the Rev. DR.. Foote, at that time
rector of ST. Pauls Episcopal Church. OF this
city. | felt that it was our last interview.

detailed to me the many remarkable cures of
cases like my own which had come under his
observation. AS a practicing physician and
a graduate of the schools, | derided the idea
of any medicine outside the regular channels
being in the least beneficial. SO solicitious,
however, was Dr. Foote. that | finally prom

its use on the first day of June. 1881, and
took it according to directions. AT first it
sickened me; but this | thought was a good
sign for me in my 0ebilitated condition. |
continued to take it; the sickening sensation
departed and | was finally able to retain food
upon my stomach. In a few days | noticed
a decided change for the better, as also did
my wife and friends. Ny niccoughs ceased
