NoTembcr 5th, 1881.
Mrs. Job Pkbsox,
Franklinton, N. C.
Dxar Madam It ia with pleasure
that I write to tell you that your valua
ble Remedy has entirely cured me of a
most feartul looking and painful sore on
my ankle. It came more than twelve
months ttfto, very much like a ringworm.
I painted it with Tinct. Iodine, until it
became a very painful and bad looking
place. Then I commenced to try every
thing I could think or hear of, until it
became so very painful I could scarcely
walk, when I went to the best doctor m
the country for advice. He told me
be could cure me if I would take my bed
anA ffePT remain for four or five Weeks,
and if I did not do so pretty soon.it
could not be cured at all, as the bone
would become diseased, and my 'toot
would have to be taken off. J ust imag
ine how I felt, to be told there was no
cure for the sore but to lose my foot, or
rive up all business either of these Re
medies would have ruined me. Mind
you this was the advice of one of the best
doctor, in the State ol North Carolina,
and this conversation took place, last
February. I continued to born with
caufcticastte advised until September,
bat derived no benefit from his treatment.
I was advised then by a friend to try
your Remedy, (Bitters and Wash) took
the first dose the 17th of September, and
I am now a well man, the sore is perfect
ly cured, and I can now walk as far,
J. mn,h and iamD as high as any
a now. Put me back to the 1st
of September, let me know as much as l
ow do of the virtue ot your Remedy,
nd I would not hesitate to pay tea dol
lars a bottle for it, if I could not get it
f.w t think more of it than any
anedicine in the world. It is not only
