BEING much afflicted with a slow fever, very nervous, and much subject
to fits, a violent oppression at my stomach, and total loss of
appetite; I was continually taking physic of various descriptions, but
found no relief. Having heard your Sanative Tea highly praised, I
resolved to try it, and found myself in a short time much better. I
have continued drinking it ever since, and at present enjoy so perfect
a state of health, that I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude for
the benefit I have experienced. I therefore send you this, recommending
it much to every person so afflicted with illness as I was, giving you
full liberty to make this known as you may think proper. I am, &c.

CASE XII. _To the Proprietor of the_ ENGLISH SANATIVE TEA.
HAVING had recourse to several medicines and prescriptions, for
internal weakness and indigestion, without the desired effect, I was
advised to make trial of your Sanative Tea, as a medicine. I
accordingly furnished myself with two parcels, and found it very
agreeable and pleasant; and in a short time I had the satisfaction of
feeling the good effects of this pleasing and salutary medicine; and to
confirm the services received from it, I am determined, for the future,
to drink it instead of foreign teas, because I think it more grateful
than any thing yet presented to the public as a stomatic; therefore in
justice to your valuable discovery for the public good, you are welcome
to communicate this information to the world at large; with the
sincerest wishes for the general use of your excellent Tea. I am, Sir,
&c.

CASE XIII. _To the Proprietor of the_ SANATIVE TEA.
BEING very much afflicted with a violent head-ache for a great many
years, I some time ago heard a great praise of the Sanative Tea; I
tried it and thought it did me good, and by continuing the use of it,
it has entirely taken away my old head-ache, and I find myself much
better, and am now quite well. Indeed it has done me more good than I
could expect, as the head-ache is particularly our family complaint. I
likewise recommended it to my brother, James Robertson, of Bradfield,
Essex, and it has had the same good effects on him. Also my sister,
Mrs. Shibley, of Battle-bridge, has experienced its salutary effects;
therefore in justice to so excellent a thing, I send you this, hoping
others troubled with a constitutional head-ache, will make use of it. I
am, Sir, your obedient servant,
