of Dropsy, which I directed to be placed under yonr
treatment. The above case was placed under yonr
eare and treatment, nnd in the space of six or seven

has since been visible,! would therefore direet all who

Gentlemen : This is to certify tiiat in the year 1853,
I had a negro man afflicted with Dropsy. I gave him
Broom’s Anti-Hydropic Tincture, which I believe ef
fected a permanent cure. This negro was treated by
other physicians, but to no effect, and I cheerfully re
commend any one who has the Dropsy to try Broom’s
Anti-Hvdrepic Tincture.
