William 8 mith , of No . 5 , Little Thomas-street , Gibson-street , Lambeth , dated Dec . la , lcaa . " To Professor Holloway , ,. " Sib , —I beg to inform you that for nearly five years I hardly knew what it was to have a day ' s health , suffering from extreme weakness and debility , with constant nervous headaches , giddiness , and sickness of the stomach , together with a great depression of spirits . I used to think that nothing could benefit me , as I had been to many medical men , some of whoin , after doing all that was in their power , informed me that they considered that I had some spinal complaint beyond the reach of cure , together with a very disordered state of the stomach and liver , making my case so complicated that nothing could be done for me . One day , being unusually ill and in a dejected state , I saw your Pills advertised , and resolved to give them a trial , more perhaps from curiosity than with a hope of being cured , however I soon found myself better by taking- them , and so I went on persevering u their use for six months , when I am happy to say they effectea a perfect cure , ' ( Signed ) " WILLIAM SMITH , ( frequently called EDWABD ) .
