While visiting Tarboro, on July sth, I !
was requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
miles from town, who for seven
weeks had been suffering ~excruciating
agony from some bleod poison, Supposed
to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at her
request, I went to see her, and expected to |
see great suffering, but was not prepared
for the scene that met me. / found the
patient broken out oil o. with an erup-
ton which had occasioned such intense
that during the paroxysms she was
perfectly uncomfortable, and had scratched
and torn herself to pieces until her agony
was indescribable. During these par
oxysms she would have to be held, aud
her screams could be heard a l. ne distance.
She would pray for death to come to heI
relief; her whole body was purple ane
raw, exuded q yellow water which satu-
rated the bed through several tn OK quilts
that day she had possessed herself of q
thick gutta-percha coarse comb, and before
she could be prevented. had raked herself
with it with such force as to bread GU.
IA Of the teeth, thus adding to her agony
She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro and her neighborhood could
Afford, but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
md no permanent benefit, as the par
exysms continued to return with increas-
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
| Of the patient l called the family together
and told them to bear witness that PROM
IsED NOTHING. l could not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as 1 had
never even imagined such suffering, but il
could DO no harm and might do good. ]
then gave her a large dose of the Bitters
and as soon as the paroxysm WIS over,
sponged her whole body with the Wash
While doing so sh. would call out, "Oh
that does feel SO good" I then gave he,
another dose of the Bitters, and she wa
soon in a sweet sleep. I continued thi
treatment, and whenever the itching would
recur I would sponge the body Instant,
with the Wash, which in every instanc,
allayed in the irritation or itching anc
wardel OF those violent paroxsyms. Sh,
did not have al attack during the day
and by 4 o'clock on Wednesday, Afternoon
the disease was under perfect control. TIL
itching would ,u.ur, hut every time wa
allayed by the application OF the Wash.
left her Wednesday easy and comfortable
with directions for the treatment to he con
tinued during the night and as long a
was necessary. l came again to see be
tod ~, Saturday, the 18th, n found h
up and dressed and in the regular prose
tcutien of her household duties. She is er
tirely r.ligye alth ugh she will of cours'
have to take the Bitters some time to con
pletely eradicate the poison from he
blood. During Wednesday she frequent
call for theB itters. as she craved its sootl
ing and quoting effects, and during the da
r I administered a whole bottle, with I'll
C above results, thus proving, what 1 hay
always claimed. that my Remedy in a
