KITCHEN'S CELEBRATED BLOOD I RESTORER re FOUNTAIN OF I j FRIENDSHIP LODGE, 1.0.0. F. ! The Proprietor of the Blood Restorer has been j astounded to learn that certain members of the 1 abo~re excellent Order have objected to their j Visiting Officers endorsing the testimonial of a brother, who with grateful feelin«s desired to publish abroad the medicine which, by the help of Providence, led to his recovery from a pain ful illness. I The subjoined letter issued by order of the Lodge to Mr. Jones, vriU be the excuse for in j future omitting the Officers' Certificate hitherto I attached to Mr. Jones' testimonial. The ob ! jection of the Society is merely on technical grounds,.for Done can do other than rejoice at a ; iellow being's recovery from an alleged incur ! able disease:— ', "Mr. Jones. — ■' " Dear Sir,—ln deference to some of the mem bers of the Loyal Fountain of Friendship, who believe that their sacred rights and privileges have been infringed, we must request you to withdraw the certificate appended to your letter to Mr. Hitchons, bearing the initials of j the offices we then held in the Lodge; but, in i doing so, we would have you and Mr. Hitchens : to understand that we fully endorse what that i certificate intended to convey. . " Wo are, &c, j "Alfred Aley. "Chas. Ovektox. Yes! the certificate will be removed after so I courteous and manly a request. < The testimonial remains, and in the majesty i of truth tells its own tale. I There is no desire to imply incapacity on the I part of the Lodge Physicians;—on the contrary, they have proved themselves worthy of the | trust. Nevertheless, the Proprietor of fine Blood I Restorer desires a fair hearing for his panacea, j the use of which has boen followed with such unparalleled success ; believing that it is one of the highest and most sacred of privileges to be able to administer relief to a suffering ! brother in tliis world of pain and trouble. I The following is a copy of tho brief inoffen i sive certificate, which* has until now b^en ; attached to the testimonial, and which excited ! the anger of some rather unphilanthropically ■ disposed members of the Order :— Auckland, Ist June, 1577. We, the undersigned, Visiting Officers of the Loyal Fountain of Friendship Lodge, of the 1.0.0. F., M.U-, A.D., bear witness to the won derful cure of Bro. Jones, effected by the use of Mr. Hitchen3' Blood Restorer. i C. Overton ; Alfrrt> Aley.
