Deab Sib, —For four months I was laid up at the Thames with" rheumatism, contracted from working in the mines. Although' not confined to my bed, I was unable to walk without the aid of a stick, and my body was bent nearly double. I may state that all this time I was under medical treatment without receiving the slightest benefit. . At the suggestion of some friends, I was induced to try the Waiwera Hot Springs. I bathed regu larly three times a day and drank freely of the water, and I now find myself, after a fortnight's residence, quite cured. I am entirely free from ache or pain, and in better health than I ever was; lam grateful to you, sir, for the benefits and attention I have received, and would strongly recommend others similarly afflicted to "throw physic to the dogs," which I have proved to be useless in the case of Rheumatism. Yours, truly, Pbteb Mabtin. R. Graham, Esq. November 29,1875. Mr Robert Graham. Dear Sir, —I feel impelled, from a feeling of gratitude, to place on record the advantage I have derived from the use of the waters of the Wawera Hot Springs. I have suffered from Rheumatism for over two years, and lately was unable to ■ walk without the aid of a crutch. Thanks, however, to a persistent course of bathing, together with partaking freely of the waters,,l have quite recovered the use of my limbs. Yours obediently, Robebt Stow. Freeman's Bay. July 26,1875. Dear Sir,—Having observed during my stay at Waiwera the great effects produced by the use of the water, both by drinking and bathing, I am convinced of its efficacy in many disorders, more especially in Rheumatism, Scrofula, Gout, &c. J. Caeey, L.R.C.P., M.B.C.S. December 10,1875. Mr Robert Graham. • Dear Sir, —Like many others, I avail myself of this means of making known the great benefit I have derived from a stay of ten days at your Sanitorium, which I sought for the recovery of my health, consequent upon a severe attack of Rheumatic Fever. After a persistency in the use of the waters for ten days, I find myself free from all pain and stiffness, and much stronger and better in general health than when I arrived here. Henky J. Stidolph, Whangaroa. Mr Robert Graham. Sir, —Having suffered from a severe attack of pleurisy, I was recommended by my medical adviser, Dr Lethbridge, to visit the Hot Springs. lam happy to state that, after sixteen days' residence, I i find myself greatly benefited by the use of the waters and a pure atmosphere. I have no .hesitation in saying that when once the curative properties of the Springs become more generally known, thousands of invalids from England, California, and the Australian colonies will be glad to avail themselves of the great benefits to be derived from the Waiwera Springs.
