Tt is rather an uncommon thing for
an institution engaged in the cure OF
alcoholic Tor narcotic patients to be
able TO publish testimonials from per-
sons who have taken treatment, and
stood true To their cure for any great
length Of time.
The following testimonial is from
Mr.. c. A. Langston, who called on
Chas. B. James, the originator of the
James "cure, . to tell him how happy
he was and to let him see.how well
he looked. Mr.. Langston took treat
ment atSthe James Sauatorium, Mem
phis, Tenn, nine years ago and his
testimonial viii prove all the more
valuable as an evidence that there is
a permanent cure for those who want
to be cured and it is only one of
hundreds of testimonials received as
to similar cases cured at the James
SanatOrium. In a letter recently re
ceived from Mr.. Langston he reports
that he is still free from aH.desire and
craving for alcoholic and narcotic
stimulants, and that he would like
very much to become connected with
James Sanatorium, in order that he
might go forth into the world as
living example and, make known to
suffering humanity the good work
that is being daily accomplished at
James Sanatorium.
The following letter is from Mr.
Langston, andEwas written some time
ago. 1t shows his appreciation of the
kind attention and treatment while
he was at the Sanatorium.
Having been successfully treated
at your institution for the habitual
use of both whiskey and morphine
for eighteen years standing, it is
with pleasure that I herewith hand
you my testimonial, which you are at
liberty to use as you wish.
my case was a bad one, and the
prime of my life and manhood was
spent in misery and nothingness,
which appears to me as a blank, and
the continuous use Of liquors and en-
shaving drugs had SO stunted and par
alyzed my finer sensibilities and NOR
al and intellectual nature that I cared
little for myself, my friends and So
ciety in general. The society of ladies
GODS best gift to MANI was especially
stunned, and knowing and realizing
my sad condition, / could only bow in
humble submission to my masters,
whiskey and morphine. But at last
nature rebelled against her antagon-
lists, and as the God of Nature had
made me perfect and i'm His own
image. and after abusing and tramp
ing upon his natural and moral laws
so long, he caused my eyes TO open
and the scales to fail theretrOm, and
I realized that / was fast drifting
down to ruin and degradation, and
my conscience tmy better Judgment
said stop! stop seek a haven of re-
lief, which | sought and found at
James SauatOrium at Memphis Tenn,
the managers of which treated me
with much kinduets and hospitality,
and especially the physicians in
charge, whose kindness and atten-
ton to the wants and necessities Of
patients day and night of which
enough cannot be said, always ready
to sacrifice their rest for that of their
patients, and they all certainly love
those in charge. Hence, the right
men in the right place.
AS to the patients at the Sanato-
rim-they are always sociable and
agreeable, looking forward with "a
bright hope that the end viii soon
come and they viii come out con
querors and victorious over the enemy.
Now in conclusion, may the bles-
sings Of God rest upon this institu-
ton, and may every poor inebriate
who may enter its doors find relief
and depart therefrom a reconstructed
and happy being is the humble de
sire and wish of, yours most respect
fully, c. A. LANGSTON.
