"To John Kaye, Esq.—Dear Sir,—1 hrve much plea- sure in bringing to your notice another extraordinary case of cure through the use of your invaluable med, icine. Mrs. Wellfoot, of 2, Sylvester-lane, in this town, hits been for many years afflicted with dropsy and spinal complaint to such an extent that she had to be lift* id in and out of bed, having quite lost the use of her limbs. For the last four years she has been under the care of some of the most eminent doctors, but could not obtain any relief from their treatment. While in this deplorable condition, she was advised to try Kaye's Worsdells Pills, and, solely by their use, she has entirely recovered her health, and is able to follow her usual em- ployment. From the extraordinary benefit she has re. ceived from. the use of your medicine she is truiv grateful and thinks it her duty to make her case known, so that other unfortunate persons, suffering as she has done tnav know where to find a remedy.—I remain, dear Sir Vn»*. respectfully.
