Dear Sir: Nearly four months have pass
ed since wrote you. AS | know you are
interested IN my case l wish to tell you
how L am progressing. Before | COM
menced taking your medicines | was suf-
lering most e1cruciating pain. | had tried
every sort OF remedy and gained abso-
lutely no relief. After | had taken the
Histogenetic medicines short time how
ever, the pain and swelling became less
until 1t was gone entirely. / cannot ex-
press my gratitude as | have been sick for
years, treating with so many prominent
physicians and getting worse all the time
/ bless the day that | left San francisco
for Washington as | know that had / not
come here and consulted you | would
have been in my grave. | wish that every
one might read this as / want them to
keow how much / have to be thankful
for: May you live many years to relieve
and bless your fellow creatures.
Yours truly.
