with real pleasure thit 1 am able to attest to the gen
eral healing and curative power* ot Dr Hampton'*
Vegctaole Tincture. Sometime during la*t Novem
ber I was taken wiih a very bad and serious cough.
I was advised to take Cod-Liver Oil, and did ao;
but getting no better, I wa* induced to try your
Tincture. I got one bottle, and before I had uaod
it all, my cough left me. Permit me also to state
that, for the laat fifteen year*. I have aufiered very
much from Acute Rheumatiam and Vertigo, con
fining me at time* to my bed. lam fully convinc
ed that I owe my present good health to the tu« of
the Tincture, and a kind Providence.
You are, my friends, at liberty t« use this m you
may think proper; and belieTe me, yours, very

Cure of Cough, Consumption, great Debility.
Baltihobb, July 6, 1653.
Messrs Mortimer St. Mowbray—Gents: Last Sep
tember 1 was attacked with erysipelas, from which
a dreadful ulcer formed on my right leg. Getting
better of this, last November I took a deep cold,
which ted to what my physician told me was bil
ious pleurisy, which left me with a constant, deep
ly-seated, and painful cough, having no rest day or
night, and constantly throwing up from my lungs
a thick matter. I became much emaciated, grow
ing weaker every day, and keeping my bed the
"greater part of the time. My friends thought I had
the consumption, and at times I was also of the
same opinion. At this stage ol my disease,alter hav
ing tried many and various remedies, without sue
cees a friend advised me to try Dr Uampten'sVeget
able Tincture, and i procured me a bottle, which 1
now pronounce the greatest medicine I ever took.
Before I had taken halt the contents of one bottle,
I felt much improved; and now, having taken but
two bottles, my cough and pains have entirely left
me, and lam enabled to attend to business. I can
truly say that, with thf blessing ot God, I have
been restored to the health I now enjoy by the use
of this most invaluable medicine.
Yours, WESLEY ROCK,
