Whooping Cough, Difficulty of Breathing, and all Affec- tions ef the Chest and Lunp. W Extraordinary Cure of a Cough of Six Years' standing, declared before a Commissioner to Administer Oaths in the Supreme Court of Judicature, England. Then by james gammage, of 5 116 & 117, Widemarsh-street, in the City of Hereford, Contractor and Deoorator, do solemnly and sin- cerely declare as follows 1 About eight years ago 1 had a severe attack of rheumatic fever, from which, when I bad recovered, I had a bad cough, and the medical man who attended me, who is one of the Visit- ing Surgeons to the Hereford Infirm- ary, informed me that I never could be thoroughly cured from it. 2 From that time until about two years ago I have suffered more or leBs from the same congh, which at times was worse than at others. I especially was affected by it in the mornings when I got up, when sometimes I coughed until I was almost suffocated, and I thought I should be stifled. 3 During those years I consulted several medical men, from following whose advice I obtained no relief, and I have taken various patent medicines with the same result, and I had given up all hope of alleviating the cough. 4 About two years ago I was recom. mended by a friend to buy a bottle of George's Cough Balsam, And although I had no faith in its proving efficacious, I gave way to my friend's importunities, and purchased a bottle. 5 From the First Bottle of George's Cough Balsam I took I felt greatly relieved, and I bought another bottle, which I took, and which effectually cured my cough, and since that time I had no return of tbe ooueh. 6 If I find I have taken cold I take a dose of the Balsam as a preventative. and I am now, and have been since I took George's Cough Balsam zn As free from Cough as I ever was in my life. And I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to be true, and by virtue of the orovi- I siors of an Act raude and passed in the fifth and sixth years of the reign of bis late Majesty Kioe Wi!liam IV, inti- tuled "An Act to repeal an Act of the present Session of Parliament, inti- toled an Act for the more effectual Abolition of Oaths and Affirmations taken and made in various depart- ments of the State, and to substitute Declarations in lieu thereof, and for the more entire suppression of volun- tary and extrnjudicial Oaths and Affir- mations, and to make other provisions 1 for thi abolition of unnecessary Oaths."
