cal, Bilious, Inftamatory, Yellow and Ma
lignant Fevers in New-London, New-
York, Philadelphia, Norfolk, Baltimore,
Charleston, &c. &c. and the Weft-Indies.
Prepared bv SAMUEL H. P. LEE, m. d.
Ntw-London,(Connecticut.) Patent right
secured according to law of the United
States.
For Sale , IVkolefale & Retail , by
ISAAC HERBERT, Augujla.
They are approved by eminent Physi
cians, and others, for their virtues as an
easy, fafe, mild and efficacious remedy
for all those complaints which arise from i
a redundancy of Bile in the Stomach and
firfi pa {[ages of Men, Women and Children :
Such as Jaundice , Remittent , Intermittent ,
and Ague Fevers: Ye/low Fevers , Cholera
Morbus , Dyjentery , Diarrhea ; Jick Head
Aches , Foul Stomachs , Indige/lion , &c. See.
They are also found very ufeful in
JFormSy Dropsy , Gravel, suppression of Urine ,
Objlruftions, obstinate Coflivenejs , and all
thol'e complaints where purging is indica
ted—also for restoring the lolt appetite
after eating or drinking to excess over
night ; for recruiting the habit in the
spring season, and may be fafely used in
all constitutions, ages and sexes.
Certificates of their Efficacy.
I certify that my daughter and foil were
for some time exceeding ill with a most vi
olent jaundice, attended with a flow fever,
pains in the stomach and bowels, loft ap
petite, yellow skin, and great iaflitude and
vveaknefs, insomuch that I expeCted they
never would recover; after trying various
remedies to no effect, I made use of Lee’s
New-London Bilious Pills; then in great
repute in the yellow fever in New-Lon
don. They were attended with the most
aftonifliing effects and performed a cure
greatly beyond my expectation. I use
them in my family in all cases where I
judge the complaints proceeds from in
testinal maladies and find them to- answer
the belt of purpoles. I am convinced
that I very often save the expence of doc
tor’s bills, by a timely ttfe of these pills in
all ordinary complaints.

Attested cases of Yellow Fever.
CASE I.
James Miller, a lad about 12 years of
age, was attached with the Yellow Fever
in September last, the parents endeavored
to throw off the disease by purgative oils,
injections, Jalep, &c. but could get noth
ing through him. The third day I was
called I found him in the second stage of
fever, with the black vomit and red pete
chial spots on his skin, he had no evacua
tion from his bowels, but ejeCted every
thing which he took—l administered two
of the pills, and he kept them down ; the
3d was given 2 hours after—and within 6
hours regular paflages was produced, at
which time the black vomit began to a
bate, and with the use of aqua calcis and
his ordinary medicines he recovered, be
- yond the expectation of any of the family.
C A S E 11.
John Weld, nurse at the hospital was
seized with the fever in all its violence,
attended with the usual symptoms of cons
tipated bowels, deliriums, vomitings, &c,
&c. he was bled, took the pills every day,
and although he was brought to the verge
of the grave, from having an uncommon
(hare of the disease, he recovered and al
ways felt immediate relief from the effeCts
of the pills.
CASE 111.
I was attacked myfelf with the fever the
last of September, from imprudently going
into an infeCted room with four sick per
sons in it early in the morning upon an
empty stomach. I was bled, and kept my
stomach and bowels confiantly affeCted by
the pills, and recovered without the use of
any other remedies except calomel in al
terative doses. I felt an immediate sen
sation of case and relief from every dose I
took, and alwavs felt myfelf secure from
• * • j
that alarming symptom the black vomit
whenever they palled through the stomach.
and I ever found this the case with all my
patients ; my wife and two servants in my
family \uere ill of the fever, but happily
recovered upon a free use of the pills.
These pills were the only medicines 1
used for the purpose of cleanfmg the firft
paflages, and for preventing the black vo
mit, whenever they were given and pro
duced liberal evacuation, they never failed
to answer this purpose in all cases, even
pregnant women could take them with
the happiest effects.
