IN mercy to the afflicted, and the gratitude and high opin ion I entertain of DR. MOSELEY as a Surgeon and Phy sician, I deem it my duty to mention the case of my wife, hoping at the same time that all persons similarly afflicted, may be benefited by it. 111 the first part of this year, my wife had several small lumps make their appearance in her breast; they continued to increase in size, until the whole breast became a diseased mass, and very painful. Iprocured the best medical aid in the city of Rome,‘and notwithstanding the earnest and faithful attention of our most skillful physi cians, she continued to grow worse and worse, until they gave the case up as incurable, and advised amputation. 1 was advised by many of my friends, to visit Dr. Moseley, of Griffin, Ga., which I did, and, astonishing as it may seem, he. had her entirely cured within one month, and she is non) in f.rood health! 1 would advise all who arc afflicted with Scirrhus, and Cancerous affections to visit the Doctor with out delay, as I am satisfied by experience and observation that he is the most skillful physician in the Southern States, in the treatment of that horrible disease—cancer.
