Sir,—l have ncen a suffrer from rneumat sm for the last twenty years in the old country. Through advice I received from medical men I emigrated to New Zea'and as being a warmer cl:mate, arid more adapted for the cure of my complaint. For the last twelve months I havo Buffered most frightful atonies from the paius in all my joints. What made my care worse I caught a severe cold, on the cold subsiding it leftan asthma, which brought on dropsy; and suffering under these maladies I tried all medical aid, and was five months in tho District '■ Hospital, Auckland, and neither my wife nor myself ever th v ht I would leave it alive, as I gradually got, worse, having pains nnd large swelling-in my knee joints, and aims, shoulders . and hands distorted. My wfe hearing of your and seeing your testimonials in the newspapers from parties which live around us, I made enquiries fron several who had been under i your treatment, who stated themselves that yoa cured them when their case was supposed to be hopeless. I determined to see you at all • hazards, and was helped to your place by my wife on sticks. Only five months under your care, and the whole of my complaints have disappeared.and am now able to follow my daily avocation, Thanka to a merciful Providence that I was brought under the influ°nce of your medioine, and wishing that you may be long spared to be able to administer your valuable Restorer to othor Bufferings as you havo done to me.-Yours faithfully, SAMUEL FIELD.
