The following eomes voluntarily from a highly
esteemed clergyman of the M. E. church, pastor
of the Church Creek eircuit in Dorchester
County, Maryland: -
“C. X Hood Co., Lowell, Mass.:
I feel it a duty to the public to send this cer
tificate. ¥saw in a Philadelphia paper a letter
from a man who had suffered from
' Muscular Rheumatism
and had been restoresd by the use of Hood’s Sav.
saparilla. I had the grip fn the winter of '9l
and ’'92 so severely that it deprived me of the
use of my arms so that my wife had to dress and
undress me, and when away fromx home I had
to sleep in my clothes. I tried five doctors and
not one accomplished anything. Then I saw
the letter alluded to and determined to try
Sarsaparilla
Hood’s. Before I had taken ome bottle I had
the use of my arms, thank God. These are
facts and can be verified by many persons here,
J. M. Colston, Church Creek, supplied me with
Hood’s. I am pastor of the M. E. church here.”
