Robert II. Hunter Is an Old veteran or
Arlington, IN the territory or Oklahoma,
who after IS years of helpless suffering Is
now so far rejuveaated that he has taken up
a quarter section or land 20 grow up with
the country, as lie says.
In 1868 Mr.. Hunter was serving at the
front in Co. G., LIST No. Cavalry, and while
on a long forced march was ten days and
nights IN the saddle during very rainy
weather. He was, shortly after getting into
camp, from the exposure he had gone
through taken with such severe crampInSs
and swelling OF the limbs, that II was al first
surmised that he had been bitten by rat
tier or copperhead- The regimentai surgeon
was not OF that opinion, but diagnosed It as
a case of saddle cramp and acute rheumatism
OF very severe type Here Is the old sol
dIers own story:
The regimental surgeon informed my
captain that | would not be able for some
time, if ever, to ride my horse, so was ap-
pointed commissary sergeant OF the COM
pany, in which capacity l served until Sep
TENDER, 1864, when from lack OF exercise,
owing to my crippled condition, l was taken
with chronic diarrhoea. Neuralgia, dyspep-
STA, and curvature OF the spine soon added
their presence to my weight OF woe, and at
my discharge l was pretty badly used up
man. OF course l was obliged to undergo
medical treatment, and had numerous ply
sicians who attempted to give me relief
without success, and as the years rolled on
hope grew DINNER until | saw nothing that
would assuage my suffering but the grave
linus L dragged on miserable existence
until 1880, when to add to my misery |
caught Ia grippe, and when that left me, all
my diseases were emphasized, and my lungs
became affected. / was not able to walk any
distance, and when | came to Oklahoma in
1898, was too Ill and weak and helpless to
look at the quarter section had taken up.
In August, 1895, | read in newspaper
that DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie had cured the effects of la grippe in a
great many cases, so | thought it would 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 appetite
and digestion. My heart, which had been
irregular, missing about every third beat,
resumed normal action, and my liver and
kIndeys began once more to do the labors
for which they were intended. L continued
to take the pills, and soon my right arm,
which had grown useless, and my hand so
nerveless that l could not grasp a pen, be
came much better, and eventually well. |
can now use my right arm, hand and shoul-
der as we'll as ever. 1 can chop wood, and
often walk 10 or 20 miles, and can plough a
whole day.
Life looks altogether different to ME,
thanks to DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
with my pension, nope TO De aOIe from my
labors to lay up little money. As l had
entirely given up all hope of health. it may
be imagined how happy l feel, and how
changed the world looks. l have offered TO
pay for Pink Pills for others who cannot
afford to buy them, as a debt OF gratitude
that | can thus partially pay, and try to
let everybody know what the remedy has
done for me.
Il am not able to express my changed
feelings, nor could l if l had far higher
command OF language than l now have.
hope that this testimonial may be the means
OF others knowing that there is relief for
them in DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People.
