Sir, I have, for thefe lafl two years, had a defire to write to you concern¬ ing the benefit we have received at different times from your Reani¬ mating Solar Tincture, having ufed it as the chief Medicine for fourteen years; but I believe I fliould not have written now, had I not been re¬ commended by a friend, who thought it a duty due to your invaluable Tincture, to make the following Cures known. My mother was fnatch- ed from the jaws of death, and reffored to her former health, by taking the Solar Tinclure. I cannot juftly Rate her complaint, but will as near as I can. She was very fuddenly, to our great furprife, deprived of her fenfes, but (fill had ftrength to walk about the houfe ; her fpeech foon failed her, and in a fhort time there was every reafon to think her diffo- lution was near. We immediately had recourfe to the Solar Tincture, though there feemed very little hopes of her recovery. Our neighbours endeavoured to comfort us in our diftrefs, while we, her children, flood around her, anxioufly waiting the event; when, to our aftonifhmemt and joy, fhe began to recover ; and I believe the Solar Tincture, with the blefling of God, to be the means of her now being in this world. She continued to take the Tincture for about three weeks, and is now per¬ fectly recovered ; fince then, it has been held in great efteem by our family, though we valued it before, as we have had fo many proofs of its value, and feldom ufe any other medicine.-“-My brother has alfo received great benefit by taking it. He was taken fuddenly ill, and was thought to be in great danger ; he laboured under fome inward pains; but by taking the Solar Tincture was reftored.—His wife was afflicted with fomething of a gouty complaint, having frequent fevere attacks in the ftomach ; and, I believe, had it not been for her taking the Tinc¬ ture, Ihe would long ago have been in her grave; fhe has been fre¬ quently brought to death's door, but has always been relieved by the Tincture.—Their child was alfo ill, and, to all appearance, in the ago¬ nies of death ; but, to the aftonifflment of all prefent, by giving her the Tincture, was reftored. W e do not exactly know what her complaint was, but think it was convulfions.—My fifter got very much hurt laft October ; file was in a dangerous ftate, and could not be moved in bed, but the Solar Tincture reftored her—I myfelf was thought to be very far gone in a decline, but the Tincture foon reftored me to health. In fhort, we have had fo many inftances of its good effects, for fourteen years, fince we had the happinefs to meet with this valuable reftorative
