IRON Tar5oro southerner. Jusg III

From Id75oro S0uthefReT, Jutg H.. ,
While visiting Tarboro, on July Sti,, i
requested to visit Miss Mary E Station,
seven miles from town, who fcr sewn
weeks had been suffering excruciating
agony from some blood poison, supposed
t. be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at her
request, I wentto see her, and expected to
see great suffering, but was net prepared
for the scene that net NE. I found the
patient broten out IL ov r with an erup-
ton which had cccasioned such intense
itching Il at during the paroxysms she was
perfectly II comfortable, and had scratched
md torn herself to pieces urtil hsr agony
was indescribable. During these par
'Xysms she would haze to be held, ana
her screams could be heard a |. ne distance.
She would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole bndy was purple and
raw, exuded a y low water which satu-
rated he bed through several tt OK quilts
that day she lad possessed herself of a
thick gutta percha coarse comb, and before
she could be prevented, had raked herself
with it with such force as TO bred out
ONE of the teeth, thus dding to her agouy.
| She was attended by some good physicians
as Tarboro AMI her ne%ighborhood could
afford, but their treatment afforded only
occasional relief by outward applications,
nd no permanent benefit, as the par
oxys1ns continued to ret1rn with ~increas-
ing violence. Upon viewing the condition
Of the patient I called the family together
nd tO!d fhor, fD 300 p - oo- 49, ,,-,.
IsED I could not tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not, as l had
never even imagined such suffering, but it
could do no harm and might do good. /
then gave her a large dose of the Bitters
and as soon as the paToxysm wfs over,
sponsed her whole body with the Wash
While doing so she would call out, "Oh
that does feel SO good" I then gave her
another dose of the Bitters, and she was
soon in a sweet SLEEP. l continued this
treatment, and whenever the itching would
recur I would sponge the body instantly
with the Wash, which in every instan-e
allayed in the irritation or ich1ng and
wardef of those violent paroxeyms. She
lid not have an attack during the day,
and by 4 O'Clock on Wednesday afternoon
the disease was under perfect control. The
itching would recur, ! 1t every time was
allayed by the application OF tt e Wash. ]
eft her Wednesday easy and comfortable
with directions for he treatment to lie con
tinucd during the night and as long az
was Necessary. [ came again to see he
tod y, Saturday, the 18th, and found h
up AM dressed and in the regular prose
eution of her household duties. She is en-
tirely I Ii We ,alth ugh size vii ~,tfcourse
rave to take the Bitters some time to com
o'etcly eradicate the poison from he
Hood During "Wednesday she frequent
call for the Bittcrs. as she craved its sooth
ng and q%u:ctins effects, and during the Ga
