The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 45

Waiwera Springs, December 12th, 1875

Waiwera Springs,

Dear Sir,—For four months I was laid up at the Thames with Rheumatism, contracted from working at 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 the slightest benefit. At the suggestion of some friends I was induced to try the Waiwera (Hot Springs); I bathed regularly three limes 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 as good health as ever I was. I am grateful to you, sir, for the benefits 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 obediently,

Peter Martin.

R. Graham Esq..
