When the Civil war began | joined

In 1863, while serving with my COM
pany, | received a sabre cut that caused
paralysis. and for eight months | was
obligr to lie in the hospital at Wash

doctors, but the paralysis remained as
bad as ever. | suffered from chllls and
nv general health was not good.

of the cures effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. L began
taking the pills and soon found they
were doing me good. In six months
time l was completely cured the par
alysis has not returned and l never
