Before I went to the Springs I suffered for more ■ than a month the most excruciating pain from rheumatic gout, had to be lifted in and out of bed, in .-, ' fact was unable to walk without the use of two sticks, i It took me an hour to walk from Wakefield-street toJH the 'Lady Bowen.' After getting to the Springs I I bathed twice a day and drank freely of the mineral I waters, at least a pint each day, and after six days I I felt quite well, iree from pain, and can walk as well J1 as ever I did. It is now eleven days since I left arid I have had no return of pain. If this should induce- ••.■■ any person suffering as I was to try the hot baths, I ■; feel sure they will get cured, and if so, serve the object I have in writing to you.—l am, sir, your . obedient servant, Thos. Weaving. Robert Graham, Esq. Auckland, January 5,1875.: i Mr Robert Graham, Sir, —Understanding you are the proprietor of the Hot Springs at Waiwera, I think it is only due to you I to give a short account of my successful experience of the efficacy of the Springs in the cure of Bheuma- ' . tism. I had been suffering from Rheumatism since I the year '69, contracted through cold and wet working on the West Coast, and from that time until I left the Springs I had suffered periodically from the it same. The second bath I took brought back all the I rheumatic xoains I had ever experienced in different * parts of my body. At the end of a fortnight I wag .■& free from all pains, with the exception of the ankles ■■...' (which was always the worst part affected), and with I the exception of my feet being very tender from so much hot bathing lam quite a new man; I have not 1 the slightest pain of Rheumatism about me, not even • in the ankles. To parties visiting the Springs I should advise them not to feel alarmed or disappointed if they find themselves worse the first day or .;. two; according to the general opinion it shows the ; action of the waters. Also I would recommend the :■ drinking at least two or three glasses of water both '. on entering and leaving the bath; also, sweating in the blankets, for which accommodation is provided '■•>■' in each bath; and to parties affected with acute \ Rheumatism I think the more they use them the more speedy will be the cure. > , I remain, sir, Yours respectfully, C. H. WILLOUGHBT. Auckland, 10th January, 1875. Dear Sir,— In the interests of those who may be similarly ; afflicted, and in recognition of the benefits I derived at your sanatorium, the Waiwera Hot Sbrings, desire to record the efficacy of the baths and wat •*■ in the cure of Dyspepsia, from which I hai suffer many months. Thanks, however, to the virtues a, the mineral waters, together with a free use of bath 6 I was relieved of the distressing symptoms, and hay since enjoyed the best of health. Yours truly, John Bent. Robert Graham, Esq. Robert Graham, Ksq. Dear Sir, —Having suffered from rheumatism for some time past, on the recommendation of my medical adviser, Dr. Turnbull, of Christchurch, I visited your Hot Springs. After three weeks'bathing and drinking the mineral water, I am restored to perfect health. In fact, I have not felt so well for years as I am at present. The trip altogether has been a most enjoyable one. I found the hotel comfortable, excellent table, attendance good, civil and obliging, pleasant for the invalid seeking health, or the man of business requiring laxation. I know of no V place in New Zealand where a person could pass a few weeks more agreeably than at your Hot Springs. | Yours faithfully, J. J. FITZGrBBON, Postmaster, Christchurch. n EOR G E W.
