I Mb, Hitchexs, Dear Sir.—l feel I should not be doing you ! justice, or the extraordinary medicine you | 'manufacture, where I not to acknowledge the j wonderful care it has effected upon myself,. It will be necessary to explain the nature of my i complaint. On the passage to this colony, in | the ship Jessie Osborne. I had a severe, attack j of Rheumatic Fever, and was carried ashore in | tlio most helpless condition. I remained in this ■ state for several months, suffering the most j intense pain. I tried many remedies, but to no i eitect, and bny«.n to despair of ever getting relief. I was recommended by a friend to try your wonderful Bioou Restorer. I did so. and the change—almost from the first dose—was astonishing. I am now perfectly restored to health, and as well as ever I was in my life. Should you feel disoosed to sive Dublicitv to this letter, I would say to those suffering ttom Rheumatism—<io not' delay, but at once take your invaluable medicine, and they will soon lind relief. For myself, lean only say that yon have my lasting gratitude, and I shall at all I times take it as a pleasure to give anyone all the information possible. I herewith enclose a Certificate from two gentlemen (Visiting Oflicers of the Fountain of Friendship Lodge of Odd Fellows), and have their permission to give publicity to it.—l am, dear Sir, yours ever gratefully, Tijos.
