CERTIFICATES.
Powelton. Hancock county, Ga., Jan. 16, 1856.
Joseph II. Broom, Esq.—Dear Sir : This is to cer
tify that in the year 1856, I had under my care a case
of Dropsy, which I directed to he placed under your
treatment. The above case was placed under your
care mid treatment, and in the space of six or seven
weeks you made a fiual cure. The above specified case
has since been under my notice, but no sign of Dropsy
has since been visible,! would therefore direct all who
have the Dropsy to give you a trial, for I think your
medicine the greatest ever discovered for Dropsy.
Yours respectfully,
