GfUELEY HAS OPENED AN OFFICE IN THIS PLACE, WHERE THOSE SUFFERING WITH ANY DISEASE OF THE EYE, E AE OR THEOAT, CAN receive immediate attention and permanent relief. With the Otoscope for examining the Ear, the Ophthalmoscope for examining tho Eye, the Laryngoscope for the Throat, he is able to detect, and treat successfully, troubles that have heretofore been considered incurable. As to his success in tho treatment of Eye diseases, he invites attention to the following certiri ANDERSON, S. C, August 1st, 1873. This is to certify that I have been blind for the last three yoars, during which time I have spent several hundred dollars in trying to obtain relief, the greater part of which I spent in Atlanta, Ga., under treatment of Dr. Hooton. without obtaining any relief whatever. I had almost despaired of ever being able to see, when Dr. J. W. Gurley informed me that my case was Cataract, and, by an operation, he believed that he could restore my sight. I consented, and on the 17th of February last, he operated upon my eyes. On the seventh day after, I was able to distinguish objects at a distance. My sight has improved ever since, and now (Aug. 1st) feel that, with the aid of my glasses, I can see as well as any person of my age (67), and am able to attend to all my business?which renders me a happy man, being brought from Darkness to Light. I can cheerfully recommend Dr. Gurley to persons suffering with any disease of the Eye. MATTHEW SNIPES. ABBEVILLE C. H., S. C, May 13th 1873. Dr. J. W. Gurley?Dear Sir : I have been almost blind for quite three years, caused by Granular Ophtalmia, and general inflammation of the Eyes. I was under treatment of Dr. Voorhees, (Ophthalmic Surgeon,) of Memphis, Tennessee, one year; and at the expiration of that time, found mysplf very little improved. I had about despaired of ever being able to en? joy perfect vision again, when my attention was called to your advertisement. I made up my mind to try your skill, hoping atleast to get rid of the terrible inflammation, which rendered me almost crazy at times. My hopes have been more than realized within the remarkably short time of eight weeks. The inflammation is all gone?granulations very nearly so. The lids have resumed their normal appearance, and my sight is perfectly restored. I can read the smallest print with ease, without the aid of spectacles. I can recommend those suffering with any disease of the Eye to call on you at once. BENJ. E. BARKSDALE.
