Extract a Utter from a gentleman in Dayton, Ohio.
DAYTON, May 1, 1847. *
Dr. A. M. Muuriceau:
* My wife baa lioen peroeptloly sinking for seme three
year* or more, in consequence of her great anguish and
suffering some month# before and during confinement:
every successive one more and more debilitated and
prostrated her, putting her life 'n Imminent danger, and
which was on the lost occaa. a iteyalrud of. I supposed
that this state of things was inevitable, and reaignod
myself to meet the womt. At this tiiue (now alxnn two
months), I hoard your book highly SpWHI of, as con
taining #omc matters rexchlug my case. On its receipt
and perusal, I cannot express to you the relief it afforded
my dlKlroescd mind, and the joy it# pages Imparted to i
my wife, on learning that the great discovery of M M.
Desomeanx provided a remedy. It ojtened a prosjieot
to me which I little oonceived was possible. No i-ecu
nlary consideration csn ever repay the obligation* 1 am
under to you, for having been the mean# of mirairting to
Us the matters contained in u The Married Woman's
Private Medical Companion." But fur this, ere anotlior
year would have passed over my head, in all human
probnbi'. y my wife would have been in her grave and
my ohiluron left motherless."
In consequence of tho universal popularity of the
work, as evidenced by its extraordinary #ale. various im
position# have been attempted, as well on booksellers as
on the public, by Imitations of title page, spurious edi
tions, and surreptitious Infringement* 01 copyright, and
Other devices and dooeptions, it bas been fouud necessary
