Arlington, in the territory OF Oklahoma.
who, after 80 years Of helpless suffering Is
now SO far rejuvenated that he has taken
up quarter section OF land ito grow up
With the country" as he says.
In 1868 Mr.. Hunter was serving at tho
front in Co. g., lstMo. Cavalry, and while
on q long forced march was 10 days and
nights in the saddle during very rainy
weather. Be was, shortly after getting
into camp, from the exposure he had gone
through taken with such severe crampings
and swelling OF the limbs, that it was at
first surmised that he had been bitten by q
RATHER or o cOpperhead. The regimental
surgeon was not Of that opinion, but dag
nosed it as a case of saddle cramp and acute
rheumatism of a severe type. Here Is the
old soldiers own story:
1.-THE regimental surgeon informed my
captain that would not be able for some
time, il ever, to ride my horse, so wasap-
pointed C0mmissary sergeant OF the COM
pany, in which capacity served until Sep
TENDER, 1854, when from lack OF exercise,
owing to my crippled condition, was taken
with chronic diarrhOea. Neuralgia, dys-
pepsia and curvature OF the spine soon
added their presence TO my weight Of woe,
used up man. OF course l was obliged to
undergo medical treatment, and had nu-
merOus physicians who attempted to give
me relief without success, and as the years
rolled on hope grew DINNER until l saw
nothing that would assuage my suffering
but the grave.
''Thus dragged on miserable existence
until 1890, when to and TO my misery |
caught la grippe, and when that left me, all
my diseases were emphasized, and my lungs
became affected l was not able to walk
any distance, and when came to Oklahoma
in 1893, was too ill and weak and helpless to
look at the quarter section had taken up.
''In August, 1893, read in newspaper
that DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie had cured the effects Of Ia grippe in q
great many cases, so thought 1t could do
me no harm to try them, and did.
Before had finished the first box my
cough was cured, and all pulmonary symp-
toms had disappeared, and my general
health became better, especially my appe-
tite and digestion. Ny heart, which had
been irregular, missing about every third
beat, resumed normal action, and my liver
and kidneys began once more to do the
labors for which they were intended. con-
tinued to take the pills, and soon my right
arm, which had grown useless, and my
hand so nerveless that could not grasp a
pen, became much better, and eventually
well. can now use my right arm, hand
and shoulder as well as ever. can chop
wood, and often walk 10 or 20 miles and can
plough whole day.
sIife looks altogether different to mo;
thanks to De, Williams Pink Pills, and
with my pension, hope to be able from my
labors to lay up little money. AS had
entirely given up all hope of health, it may
be imagined how happy feel and how
chnnCed the world looks. have offered I'd
pay for Pink Pills for others who cannot
afford to buy them, as debt Of gratitude
that can thus partially pay; and l try tC
let every body know what the remedy has
done for me.
az am not able 10 express my changed
feelings, nor could II had far higher
command Of language than now have.
hone that this testimonial may be the
means of others knowing that there is re
lief for them in Dr.. Williams Pink Pill!
for Pale People.
