The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 45

Clement's Park, Cambridge, Waikato, Proprietor Waiwera (Hot Springs). March 6, 1876. To Robert Graham, Esq.

Clement's Park, Cambridge, Waikato, Proprietor Waiwera (Hot Springs).

To Robert Graham, Esq.,

Dear Sir,—Among the many invalids that have visited the Waiwera (Hot Springs), perhaps there is not one who has derived more benefit in so short a time as myself; and I think it is a duty I owe to others who may be similarly situated to make my case known. When I went to the Springs I was suffering great pain;—could not walk, but had to be carried, and when laid down on the sofa at Waiwera, suffered such excruciating pain, that I had to get brandy and water to keep me from fainting. My knee was swollen to twice its usual size. After fourteen days' bathing and drinking the water, I recovered; got rid of the pain, and felt in every way as well as ever I was in my life, which has continued; and I feel sure when better known, the Waiwera (Hot Springs) will be highly appreciated, and great benefits will be derived from such valuable medicinal springs. I have refrained from giving a testimonial till now, fearing the rapid cure could not be lasting; but is is now six months since I was cured, and not the slightest symptoms of a return of the pain, in fact I never felt better.

I am, yours faithfully,

A. Clements.
