For the last twelve months, I.have suffered most (rightful agonies from the paiDß in all my joints. What made my case worse I • can/ ht a severe cold, on the cold subsidiDg it left an asthma, which brought on dropsy; and < suffeiing under those maladies I tried all ' medical aid, and was flvo months in theDistrlct Ho3pital, Auckland, and neither my wife nor myself ever th _v lit I would leave it alive, as, I g a'jually got. worsp, having pains and large swelling* in my knee join ts, and arms, shoulders and hands distorted. My wife hearine of your and seeing your testimonials in the newspapers from parties which live around us, I made enquiries from several who had been under your treatment, who stated themselves that j oj cured them when their case was supposed to be hopeless. I determined to see you at all hazards, and waß helped to your place by my wifeon sticks. Only five months under your ■ care, and the whole of my complaints have d isappeared.and am now able to follow my daily I aiocatlon. Thanks to a merciful Providence that I was brought under the influence of your medicine, and wishing that you may be long spared to be able to administer your valuable: Restorer to other sufferings as you have done to kc.-Yours faithfally, SAMUEL FIELD.
