D K. G R A X T Has arrived in Wellington, and may be consulted at his Consulting Room?, Melbourne Hotel, Willis street, Private Entrance. Hours of Attend nice : Homing, 9 tiil 1 ; Afternoon, 2 tiil 5 ; Saturdays, morning only 7. OPINIONS OF THE PRESS : Blindness and Deahness. By the kind invitation of Professor Wallenbnrg and Dr. Grant, the editor of this journal, in company with the editor of the Saturday Advertiser, visited their consulting rooms at the Criterion Hotel yesterday morning. The first case shown was that of a Miss White, aged 41 years, the daughter of a settler at Oaraaru, who has been totally Wind for years. This young lady has been under the treatment of these clever oculists for three days, and, wonderful to say, her eyesight has been perfectly restored. The father of the girl assured us that he had placed her under the care of several medical men, who had failed to do her any good, despite the money that he lavished upon her. The next was the case of a Miss Hughes, a Dunedin resident, who stated that she had been deaf for a period of over three years. Strange to say, she had only been under treatment for eight days, and her hearing has been fully restored. This fortunate girl is nearly in ecstasies over her good fortune. The next subject under treatment was a laborer named Patrick Francis, working at Logan’s Point, who informed us that latterly he was struck in the right eye with a stone, by which he lost his sight, and of late his left eye has been materially affected by the blind one ; but, thanks to the skill of Professor Wallenburg, he has now recovered the sight of his two eyes, and is able to discern the smallest print. Herman Schultz, of Hyde, was the last patient introduced. He stated that he had been totally deaf for years, and that he had only been under treatment for a few days, and now he could hear plainly. These gentlemen have numerous other oases under treatment. The cases that we have instanced should be sufficient to remove any doubt from the most sceptical. All the patients’ that are now under treatment have been tampered with by the medical profession with no satisfactory result, and this, in the major portion of cases, causes more] aggravation, and makes effectual cure most difficult. The above cases clearly illustrate that Dr. Grant and Professor Wallenburg are, without doubt, what they profess to be—Oculists, Aurists, and Specialists. We would strongly recommend those who are either afflicted with blindness or deafness to consult these gentlemen at once, as their stay here is limited.— Evening Tribune, September 24th, 1879The Evening Tribune, of October 18, says : Professor Wallenburg and Dr. Grant have again effected some more marvellous cures in blindness. The editor of this journal, accompanied by Mr. J. J. Connor, visited the oculists’ consulting-rooms at the Criterion Hotel this morning. The first person the editor conversed with was Daniel Mahoney, a laborer, residing at Logan’s Point, who stated that he had been totally blind for some two weeks, through a severe cold he had contracted. He had been under private treatment for a week, but lie had got worse instead of better. He was brought to Professor Wallenburg on the 11th inst,, and since then he has been under this clever oculist’s treatment, with the result that he is now recovering the sight of both eyes. John Chalmers, a brickmaker, residing at Pelichet Bay, stated that he had been blind of the right eye for over nine weeks, and the left one was commencing to become affected by the right one. He was under treatment at the hospital, hut without any beneficial result. He had been under Professor Wallerihurg’s treatment three weeks, and he can now discern the smallest object with both eyes. Patrick Connor, a miner, residing at Hiudon, was the next patient consulted. He had been totally blind of the right eye for throe months, and had been in the hospital under treatment, which, he states, tended to make the right eye worse, and to injure the left one. He went under Professor Wallenburg’s treatment on the 9th October, and now he is perfectly cured, and intends starting to follow his calling on Monday next. —Tuapeka Times, 15th November, 1879. AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. To the Editor. Sir, —You will much oblige me, as well as benefit the public in general, by inserting in your columns regarding the cure effected on my right eye, which was totally blind when I placed myself under the treatment of Doctors Grant and Wallenburg. I also found myself using the sight of the left eye. I have now recovered my sight, and am going to work tomorrow. Out of gratitude to those gentlemen, allow me to thank them, and hope all these suffering in the eyes may avail themselves of their skill.—l am, &c., Patrick Francis. Witness—W. J. Bawden, Logan’s Point, Dunedin, 7th October, 1879. A WONDERFUL CURE. To Db. Grant and Ptoflssoh Wallenberg. Gentlemen, —Allow me to thank you for the wonderful cure you have performed in my case. I have been deaf for twenty years in my left ear, and twelve years in the right, I placed myself under your care on the 6th Octuber. This day I am able to hear the ticking of a watch at a considerable distance from my ears, and am quite well. I hope all sufferers may be as fortunate as I have been.
