sonnet THING TO Be PROUD Or!
The City Can Point With Pride to an Establishment in Her Mds,
Founded for the Relief of the Sufferers From Disease and
AffiGtlOn the elevation Of Bodily Pain and
the Restoration of Health.
1t Has Won Its Support by Work of Merit
and Skill

Probably one of the most important en-
terprises of which Savannah can boast,
and one from which emanates the great
est amount of benefit to her citizens is the
Abbo Medical and Surgical Institute, To-
Gated at 1853 Hull street, between Whita-
ker and Barnard.
From no other establishment or source
has the people of this city and the sur
rounding country derived as much prac-
teal benefits as they have from the re-
suits of DIR. Abbos determination to give
to Savannah an institution that she had
for years been sadly in need of, and one
which every citizen could be proud Of.
THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
To be competent to administer to the
sick and afflicted, to relieve the sufferings
of those who have sustained bodily hurt,
either by injury or affiiction, to alleviate
the pain of those who are in the throes
of some horrible disease, and restore to
health the weak and debilitated is consid-
cred among the grandest of the many pro-
LESSONS that man has been granted the
power of mastering.
In every cline and every land can be
found it's followers, and whose worth is
measured by the results of their work,
which alone is the crucial test of their
skill and ability. Judged by this standard,
tested by the results of his care of nu-
merous complicated and puzzling cases.
Abbo has been placed in the lead of his
profession.
The work of Abbo in Savannah has been
wonderful, and almost every case that
bae h ga ha tpb
with interest by numbers of people, some
prompted by motives of interest in the pa
tent some to convince themselves of the
truthfulness of the reports of Abbos mar
Vicious work and many others with an eye
of jealousy, eager to obtain some flaw in
his judgment that might be bounced upon
to be picked to pieces and held up with
envious satisfaction for the ridicule of
others.
The first class of observers were re-
warded for their observation by witness
ing medical work that was astonishing,
perplexing and in some cases almost mir
aculous. The latter class were no less
astonished, and, though they failed in
their motives they were compelled in all
cases to wonder at the success of Abbo
and secretly praise him, while many, inn
PEELED by a sense of honor and justice,
were compelled to openly recognize his
worth and ability as an expert specialist
in the treatment and cure of disease.
WOULD NOT DOWN.
Like all movements tending to the adj
vancement of any industry or establish
ment of any enterprise, no matter of what
nature it may be, the founding of the Abbo
Institute, and the practice that was be-
ing rapidly secured by Abbo, met with op-
ponents, but the people, generally led by
the most intelligent and respectable, bided
their time and after a fair test of Abbo's
work, and after viewing with interest the
benefits derived by the afflicted through
the Abbo Institute, gave them their earn
est support and cooperation and as a con-
sequence no institution in Savannah is a s
highly praised as this one and from none
has so much benefit been derived.
