My Deab Sib, —In reply to your request, I gratefully forward you a further certificate of the value of your medicine, in cases which | have fallen to my own knowledge. I have been suffering from Rheumatism \i constantly for five years ; — the result of many wet jackets in Hobson's Bay, before I put A myself under your treatment. ns In the history of that time there are all sorts i of horrible and some comical reminiscenctii i-t Pailsful of medicine ; baths of sulphur; baths <: of brine ; baths medicated; and baths galvanic. Out of the one the patient came smelling :_ like a lucifer match: out of another, stewed to an uncommon limpness, or quivering like a galvanised frog. | You may be sure that I spent a good deal | of coin in making the trial of the above so- I called remedies , none of them, however, gave 1 me permanent relief; but yours, in a few days after I had taken it, destroyed the racking pain aud gave a general tone to the health. Many of my friends, especially the medical ones, thought bad results would follow; but ' more than seven years have now gone by and I 1 have had no relapse. I have Bince sent scores of people to you of all classes, and have never heard of your Ail ing to relieve them. , ■ Accept my congratulations that you hare I successfully established the value of the medi cines, despite all obstacles.—Yours very faith fully, ; JOHN J. SHILLINGLAW, Government Shipping Master. From C. P. HACKETT, Esq., Police Magis trate, Melbourne. Awidely-knownbad f case. Cured in about a fortnight. ' Police Office, Melbourne, January 25,1867. Deab Sib, —Four years have now elapsed since, at the instance of my friend Mr. John Shillinglaw, (whom you had so miraculously cured of long-standing Rheumatism) I WM induced to place* myself in your hands, as I was at that time, as for two years previously,, in bad health. I had at various times, many of the leading medical men in Melbourne, and j had also tried the effects of change of air in' New Zealand and Van Dieman's Land, but', without deriving any advantage; yet within a fortnight of taking the first glass of your medicine I was thoroughly cured, and sines that time I have been free from any return of., my ailments. 0.
