Statutory Declaration.— l,' Franz Eaabe, Ironbark, Sandhurst, in the Colony of Victoria, Australia, do solenwly and sincerely deolare that on the 25th June, 1877, my s*_ Alfred, six years of age, was accidentally hurt w.th an axe on the knee. I at once took all pains to secure medical assistance. Howover. in spite of all efforts, on the 27th Auenst, 1877, the opinion waa given by Dr Macgillivray that ___ amputation of the injured limb had become I imperative, in order to save life. At his iuncture I coiled on Messrs Bander nnd Sons, procurincsome of their Extract of too Eucalyptus Globulus, and by Ike application of the same I bad the satisfaction of seeing* my son within a. fortnight out of all danger, and to-day he ia recovered. I may just add that it waa when the erisia had been reached that tho Extraot referred to was flrstanplied. And I make this solemn declaration, Ac— Franz Eaabe.
