LONDON. A VOICE FROM HAMPSHIRE. 14, North Cross-street, Gosport, October 16th, 1872. DEAR SIRS,―About five or six years ago I was very ill, suffering from boils, of the painful and dangerous kind called carbuncular boils, and no medicine which I took gave me relief, till a friend of mine advised me to try PARR'S LIFE PILLS; but I would not do so for some time, as I had no faith that they could do me good, but my friend becoming more urgent, I, to satisfy him, tried these Pills, and soon found so much benefit that I determined to persevere, and thankful I am that I did so, for the result is a perfect cure. I have never been troubled since, and an occasional dose keeps me in capital good health.-I am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully and gratefully, J. CARSWELL. Messrs. T.
