It will bo necessary to explain the nature of my complaint. On tho passage to this colony, in the ship Jessie Osborne, I~ hid a severe attack of Rheumatic Fever, and was carried ashore in the most helpless condition. I remained in this state for several months, suffering the most intense pain. 1 tried many remedies, but to no effect, and hnyim to despair of ever getting relief. I was recommended by a friend to try your wonderful JBlood 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 disposed to give publicity.to this letter, I would say to those suffering from Uheumatism —do not delay, but, at onoc take your invaluable medicine, and they will soon find relief. For myself, I can only say that you have my lasting gratitude, and I shall at all times take it as a pleasure to give anyone all the information possible. I herewith enclose a Certificate from two gentlemen (Visiting Officers Of the Fountain of Friendship .Lodge of Odd Fellows), and havo their permission to give publicity to it.—.l am, dear Sir, yours ever gratefully, Tuos.
