Joseph H. Broom, Esq.—Dear Sir : This is to cer
tify that in the year 1856, l had under tny care a case
of Dropsy, which I directed to lie placed under your
treatment. The above ease was placed under your
care and treatment, and in the space of six or seven
weeks you made a final cure. The above specified ease
has since been under my notice, hut no sign of Dropsy
has since been visible, I would therefore direct nil who
have the Dropsy to give you n trial, fur 1 think your
medicine the greatest ever discovered for Dropsy.”
Yours respect full v.

This is to certify that Mrs. Elizabeth Nixon sign
ed the above certificate in our presence.—We further
certify that we were acquainted with her condition
before she commenced taking Dr Broom’s Anti-Hy
dropliic Tincture, and so far as you know, all she
states in the above certificate is true. She was en
tirely helpless, and dependent entirely upon charity
for a support for herself and family. No one thought
that she could ever be relieved. She is now, to all a-
pearnnee, entirely well and able to work aud suppo
herself and familv.

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 lias the Diopsy to try Broom’s
Anti-Hydropie Tincture.
