S^mtjkl Hood— This is to certify that I possessed but very indiffer ent health for the latt seven years, and during the last three years and and a-half, I can safely say, that I was scarcely one day free from pain in my back and womb. About seven weeks ago I was very HI, so much so, that I was unable to do anything but to crawl about the house for to save funeral expenses, as the doctor I had attending me at the time can testify; and who at the same time left me with the parting injunction that I had better get another medical man —naming one—which I did not do, as I had him be fore. So, in my misery, I sent for you, which Ido not regret, for, from the absence of such long-con tinued vain and suffering I bad, and the disappearance of other symptoms, which so much 'resembled those attending scirrhus of the wornb —a form of disease which has been considered as the forerunner and first stage of cancer - are silent evidence* that yon have cured me, and which I feel very grateful to fyou for Trusting that the lady who is staying with me (and who came all the way from Wellington to put herself under your treatment) will get well.
