PROFESSOR 0 USSCOIT, (Late of Dunedin.) TO PROFESSOR GUSSCOTT, SIR, —Having for the last four years suffered from bad eyes, being totally blind in one, and from using a solution of nitrate of silver as a lotion, which had penetrated my whole system causing me the most acute pains, which, added to rheumatism, prevented my sleeping at night, and rendered my life absolutely burdensome to me, I have consulted and been tr< atod by doctors in different, parts of Canterbury, as also in the Christchurch Hospital, but without obtaining the slightest relief. Determined to leave no stone unturned while the smallest ohance remained of an abatement of my sufferings, I applied to you immediately I heard of your arrival, and the cure which you have effected would seem to many incredible, but as I am still here a living proof of the success of your treatment, as can also be testified by hundreds in < hriatchurch, who knowing what I was like for so long up to a week ago, look with astonishment at the change which you have wrought. Wishing you many years of happiness and prosperity in pursuing your useful career I am, dear Sir, yours respectfully, Patrick Burns. Sexton’s Allenton House, St Asaph street, Christchurch. To Professor Qusscott, Dear Sir, —I have much pleasure in giving you my testimony to the very effect* ual cure you have performed on me. For twelve years I have been afflicted with liver complaint and palpitation of the heart. I have tried several doctors in Melbourne, and Dunedin also, but none seemed to do me any good. But after being under your treatment six weeks, I am as well as ever I have been in my life, I would recommend everyone suffering from the same complaint to place themselves under your treatment. I remain, yours respectfully, Alexander Lucas. George street, Dunedin, April sth, IS7B. To Professor Gusscott, Sir. —Having been troubled with asthma for the last seven years, on several occasions I have been propped up in bed, and many times I had to get up and walk to get a breath of air, and had become so bad that I was not able to attend to my business ; in fact, I had become a burden to myself and the people with whom I was stopping. When f came to you you told me all my symptoms, which gave me confidence to place myself under your treatment, and being a believer of herbs, and seeing the largo assortment in your establishment, and also the references from other sufferers the same as myself, in looking back to the time of my suffering so long, and spending so mu!’h money without receiving any benefit from the treatment until I applied to you. I remain, yours ever thankful, Donald .Smith. Great King street, Dunedin, May 30th. To Professor Gusicott, George street, Dunedin. Dear Sir, I have been troubled with neuralgia in the head and face for the last two years, and have suffered the most excruciating pains. I have tried everything I could think of, but found no relief. I have had four teeth extracted at different times. The dentist told me that would cure me, but that did not ease me. I have been kept awake for hours at night, and could not sleep. When I would sit down to meals, then my misery would commence. If there is one pain greater than another I think this is the worst. When I heard you had cured so many of the same complaint, I was glad to have the opportunity of placing myself under your treatment, your charge being ten shillings, and I never spent ten [shillings to more advantage in my life. Miss E. Flemin, Kensington, January 2nd, 1879. To Professor Gusscott, George street, Dunedin, Sir, —I am happy to present you with a worm twenty five yards long. When I came to you you told me you could cure me in two days. I was rather doubtful, but hearing you wore rather hasty, I dare not toll you that I doubted your ability to cure me, as I was told that If I did so you would probably refuse to treat me. But I am happy to say that I overcame my scruples, and having placed myself unreservedly under your care, you have completely cured me, as the slight donation in the shape of the Tapeworm, which accompanies this, amply proves. I am, yours respectfully, Alexander McPherson, North-east Yalley, January 30th, 1879, To Professor Gusscott, George street, Dunedin. Dear Sir, —I have been under medical men in Tuapeka for eighteen months, and have been treated by the doctors for indigestion, but found no relief. I was advised to come to Dunedin for change of climate, and was advised to call on you. When I did so, you seemed to be acquainted with my complaint, for you were able to explain to me all the symptoms. lam happy to inform you that after three weeks of your herbal treatment I am restored to perfect health, I am, yours truly, Mrs Elizabeth Watters. Near Tuapeka, February 3rd, 1879. To Professor Gnscott, George street, Dunedin, Dear Sir, —I have much pleasure in giving you my testimony to the very effectual cure you have performed on me. For twelve years I have been afflicted with liver complaint and palpitation of the heart. I have tried several doctors in Oamaru and Dunedin also, but none seemed to do me any good; but after being live weeks under your herbal treatment, I am as well as over I was in my life. I would recommend every one suffering from the same to place themselves under your treatment. I remain, yours respectfully, William Henry. I Shag Yalley, January 27th, 1879. To Professor Guscott, George street, Dunedin. Sir,—l have been troubled with bleeding piles for this seven years ; at times I have been that bad that I was unable to leave my bod, and could not walk from weakness from loss of blood, and seeing the different testimonials of ethers that you had cured of the same complaint, I thought I would place myself under your treatment, and I am happy to say that, after five weeks of your treatment, I am as well as over I was in my life, and free from piles. I remain, yours truly, George McKenzie. Castle street, Dunedin, January 27th, 1879.
