From the Press, Utica, N. Y.
Mr.. Hewitt H. Williams a we'll DIDO
farmer, of Oneida County, New York,
sends us the following certificate. In
Auiry develops the fact that Mr. Williams
Is a citizen in good standing and repute,
and enjoys the respect of the community
in which he resides. His testimony
may be read with benefit by those persons
unfortunate enough to have chronic
catarrhal trouble:
To all whom it may concern: L,
Hewitt H. Williams, farmer, of Bridge
water, Oneida County, New York, do
make the following statement, declaring
it to be true in every particular:
81 am fifty-nine years of age, a native OF
Deubighshire, North Wales, but long a
resident of this county, and citizen OF
the United States. During the war OF
the Rebellion l was serving with the
army, though not an enlisted man, my
business being to look after the graves of
the dead For period l served in the
military hospitals as assistant nurse.
While at the front l contracted catarrh in
Its most aggravated form extending to
the stomach and bladder. My eyes, ears
and air passages were all affected, my
digestion was SO impaired that / could
not assimilate food, and this distressing
condition assumed the chronic form and
continued until nearly three years ago.
OF course had medical advice, and
plenty of it from several different phys
clans, but they did me no good to speak
of, and year by year my condition became
more hopeless. 1t was then that through
the newspapers I learned of the cures
effected by DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
as l was tired of paying doctors bills for
nothing, I determined to give them a
trial, and laid in a good supply, meaning
to give them thorough test. / was a
little discouraged at first, as the pills
made me more miserable, but I kept on
and after / had taken nearly one whole
box began to improve. My stomach re-
gained its tone, the bladder trouble SUBJ
sided and the urinal discharge was no
longer loaded with mucus. NV hearing
damp weather gave me little inconven-
fence, and in three months was comfort
able and able to eat, drink and sleep
we'll
II do not pretend to say that I no
longer have any catarrhal symptoms, but
when they show the least sign of becom-
ing aggravated, at once take DR.. Will
liams Pink Pills, and l soon get relief.
I'VE always keep Pink Pills in the house,
and my family take them when sick with
debility of any kind, with good results.
l take pleasure in making this certificate,
and hope that the information herein
given may be beneficial to Others
