0ew York Press

A few DAYS since there was pub
lished in this paper II OF the most
remarkable letters ever written by
any Some of the statements
made and facts it contained We're so
unusual and the interest, not to say
excitement, occasioned was so great,
that an investigation for The benent
of the public seemed q necessity. In
the pursuit of such investigation, l Wis
tied Port Chester, N. Y, and at the
hotel, on the street, and in the stores,
| heard @ great deal of talk on the
very subject | was Investigating. Rev.
Ernest L. Scott, after l had explained
what i wished, said:
Nearly a year ago | first met Mrs.
J. Henderson, who resides at No. $40
Westchester Avenue. | called to see
her in company with Hon. Addison
johnson, and must confess that L
have seldom seen any n in so de-
plorable a condition. My first view
almost unnerved ME, she was so weak,
her nerves sc unstrung, and with
the most dangerous dropsical condi-
ton. She told me how she had suf-
fered, how her sister had come to pre-
pare the house for her expected fun
eral' and she continued, words cannot
tell the story of my sufferings.' |
withdrew from the house, feeling that
it was the last time / should ever see
her alive.
THE next time | saw Mrs. Hender-
son was early in the present year. l
could hardly believe what / saw. She
was well, healthy, had no trace of the
dropsical trouble; indeed she seemed
to be in perfect health. Naturally /
was amazed and asked her the
cause. She said, with tears streaming
from her eyes: L owe it all to that
grand remedy, Warmers Safe Cure.
Her husband spoke up at once and
said, yes. that is the secret of my
wife's recovery and after | have seen
what the Safe Cure has done for my
wife, lam confident that it will relieve
any case of Bright's disease and cure
any one whose constitution is not
wasted away"
Rev. Samuel O. Curtice. pastor of
the Methodist Church at Port Chester,
said to me: Yes know all about
Mrs. Henderson's troubles, which
were caused by a bad case of Bright's
disease. She had been given up and
I was called in to baptise her. In
stead of that l talked and prayed with
her and then withdrew. / called
again the next day and performed the
ceremony. Her rapid recovery to her
present state of health and strength
is really wonderful
Hon. Addison johnson, member of
the Board of Supervisors. and their
delegate to the Assembly at Albany,
said: Il have known ali about Mrs
Henderson's case. Her death was ex-
pected daily for a long time. She was
the sickesU person / ever saw that
lived. Certainly any remedy that
could perform such wonders must be
a marvellous one"
The conclusions from my investiga-
lions are these, namely. that n OF
the most remarkable cures on record
has been accomplished in Port
Chester. 1t is that of a lady who,
when taken i'll, went from bad to
worse,n until brought to deaths door
by the worst of all known diseases,
and yet today is well and happy. The
experience of Mrs. Henderson should
prove a valuable one to all readers
who may be treading the am dan
gerous path. viz: treating symptoms
instead of what causes them, and not
realizing their great danger until, in
MANY casas foo late for human aid.
