Ford, Dentist, Americas, Go.: Detr Sir: I seo from a Card which yon published in the Sumter Republi can oi tue 23d of April, that some un known enemy of yours hail reported through the oountiy that yon had given some lady chloroform and extracted all of her teeth without her knowledge or con- i sent, when she only desired to have one tooth taken out I wish to make public the following facts : On the 19th of February, 1869, I took my wife to your office for the express purpose of having all her teeth extracted\ we both told you that we had como for that purpose. After examining her teeth carefully, wo a!l agreed that it was neces sary to take thorn all out. You at first declined to give her chloroform, and did succeed in getting out three of her teeth without it. .My .wife then became so nervous that we all come to tho conclu sion that the only way we could succeed in getting all her teeth out would bo to give her something to destroy tho pain- At my request you then extracted all her lower teeth without pain to her; youthen proposed to stop and take out her npper teeth at some fnfcuro time, but I in« .ted that you tako them oil out and save the tronblo of my coming again and of giving thoj chloroform again, and at my request you did extract the Iwiiuncc of her teeth before she recovered from the chloroform and ether. She remained at your house about three hours after tho operation was completed. She then rode homo in a bu 8gy* » distance of seven miles, without any bad effects whatever ; her gums heal ed as readily and with as little trouble as any persons I ever saw. In the latter part of the summer yon made her a full set of teeth which she has been wearing constantly ever since, with perfect satisfaction, eating on them with comfort and ease anyth : ng that she do- sired. Iu fact, she lias often said she would not tako five hundred dollars for them. These are all the facts connected with the case just os they occurred, so far as you were concerned. I will now give you my reasons for giving these facts.— About two months after you extracted my wife’s teeth I was asked by a gentleman in Americas if you had given my wife chloroform and extracted all her teeth against our wishes for the purpose of get ting a chance to make her a set of teeth. He said he had heard the rumor going around. I told him ** that it was false and not h word of truth in it, that we went to your office for that purpose, and that I was present all the time and that you done nothing but what we wanted you to do. Some time after that a gen tleman asked my wife the same question, she indignantly told him that the whole rumor was false from beginning to end. A month or two after,-the same question was again asked me by a gentleman, who stated that he had heard if. I gave him 93.

L. sCOVlLI* bold by all druggist . my3-lm the same answer—that the rumor was false from Itcginning to end without the shadow of a foundation in troth. From these facta I conclude that it ia my wife that they have accused you of treating so badly, by depriving her of a full set of good natural teeth, thiough the influence of chloroform. I now say that whoever started such a rumor made it up without any founda tion in truth whatever. It is false all tbe way through ; neither my wife nor myaelf ever made any remark to any - one that conld in any way bo construed into such a falsehood. The whole thing has been made np, in my opinion, by some design ing person whose interest it is to injure you professionally, knowing well that they conld not attack your work with a semblance of truth, therefore they seek to injure your professional character and integrity. Youcanuaethia in anyway you please to refute the malicious and false rumor. Very respectfully your friend, R. P. Banner. P. S.~1 will state further that my wife and myaelf have, whenever opportunity af forded, recommended yon in the highest terms as a Dentist and as an honorablo gentleman to deal with, and in future we shall expect to do tbe same tiring.
