EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF FITS AND WORMS.
Newry-street, Holyhead, Dec. 11, 1852.
_To the Proprietor of the Cambrian Pills_.
SIR,—Allow me to address you on a very important subject, that of my
former illness and wonderful recovery, the details of which I wish to the
whole world may be made known:—For the last fifteen years I have been
troubled with great pain in my stomach and intestines, sour belchings,
flatulence, pain in the head, lowness of spirits with general
emancipation of body, and frequent fits attacked me of late, I used to
throw my meals up as soon as eaten. Having consulted many Doctors, and
tried all remedies in reach to no purpose, until one day I was
recommended to try a Box of the Tremadoc Pills. Having continued to take
them for some time, I felt much better; after taking a dose of Pills in
going to bed one night, I felt towards morning a rumbling noise and a
queer sensation in the intestines, I got up and took another dose, and
wonderful to relate, in a few hours, _I parted with a Worm measuring
nearly_ 12 _feet_!! and ever since I am a healthy man; this occured about
three months from this date.
I remain yours obediently,
DAVID HUGHES, Provision Dealer.
Witness, Lewis Hughes.
*** All these parties may be applied to for the correctness of their
Testimonies. And for further confirmation of the extraordinary virtues
of this valuable medicine, apply to any of the Agents, who can point out
instances, in their own immediate neighbourhoods, of its beneficial
effects.
CAUTION.—The high repute and extensive sale of these Pills throughout the
kingdom have induced some unprincipled persons to imitate them, therefore
purchasers should observe the following particulars.—_That the genuine
Pills are in a turned wood Box_, _wrapped up in Green Paper_, _sealed
with the Proprietor’s Seal_, _and bearing the Signature of_ “Robert Isaac
Jones,” _on the Government Stamp_.
