Dear Sir, I fhoußhsve written you last wetfk, had I then been able to afceruin certain fa6ts, liic rumour of which I had heard. A Mrs. Beers, a near neighbour to me, the wife of Eben Beers, and daughter of captain Samuel.Hoggins, of this town, had been, for fourteen weeks, exceedingly diftrelTed with the Rheiimatifm, to such a degree that for fourteen weeks previous to the 29th ef last month, she - had not been able to v. alk acrois the room t w;i with crut ches, lave only ones, when (he made out with the'afiift ance of crutches to hobble part of the way aero's her room.. On the 2'; th.of September last, ihe procured a set of your metallic substances, and in lefs-than, an hour after Ihe had begun to use them,.in the marines directed by you, Ihe rose from her chair, and walked about hsr house, and on T . the next day she went abroad to her neighbours, having : thrown afidc her ciutdips. 1 have this day paid her.a visit 11 in company with her father, and Timothy Jon t. Esq. who lives in the street wh.'re she resides and direetiy op- ° J pofit-. to her rafideuce, and with Capt. Abel Burrett, who £: is her next neighbor, and live* within eight yards .of ljer d'oor.
