by the same gentlemen, who certify that he
lias been living in Atlanta for more than a
year, at 102 Decatur street. Captain .Joyner,
deputy city marshal, states that Prater votes
in this city, and that he paid his street tax for
last year ill Atlanta. So that both these ques

It was very evident to all parties when tho
eight o???clock scoro was taken that ???the moun

unlooked for accident, could not be headed in

people was at favor heat. Their peolcd-hcaded,

sole question left at isauo was ???How many

I was called to see Mr. John Pearson, who
was confined to his bed with whatippearcd
tf# ho consumption of tho worst form. As
all of his family hod died of that dread din-
coso (except his half brother), his death
was regarded as certain and soon. After
exhausting all the remedies, I finally as a
last resort, sent for a bottle of Brewer's
Lung Bestorer, and it acted like magic. Ho
continued the use of it for some time and
has been fnlly restored to health. Bo far

and Brewer's Lung Restorer saved Ids life.
