PAINS IN THE STOMACH To Mr. Ching, Apothecary SIR,--I think it my duty to inform you your Lozenges have had very happy effects in my fa- mily, particularly on a maid servant, who, for a long time, had complained of excruciating pains in her stomach, which she supposed was occasion- ede by worms, and had taken various worm me- dicines to no effect ; but on making trial of your Lozenges, she voided a great number of worms, some of them, she thinks would have measured tnree quarters of a yard in length, and is thereby perfectly recovered. I am, Sir, Your humble servant, R I C H A R D W E V I L L Mr. Wevill now lives in South Fifth Street.Mr. Ching published the same item in the Mercantile Adviser, a New York newspaper, between 10 March 1801 and 16 March 1801.
DIED, - On Monday last, RICHARD WE- VILL, cabinet maker and upholsterer, and Treasurer of the Benevolent & Franklinean Society. In the death of this amiable man, Society has lost one of its brightest ornaments, his wife the tenderest of husbands, and his asso- ciates the most endearing of friends. Words can convey but a faint idea of his worth. Diligence, joined with an affectionate solicitude, for family concern - zeal for re- ligion, and benevolence for the distressed where his invariable characteristics. Since the first establishment of the BENEVO- LENT SOCIETY, he has been one of its firmest supporters and one of its most active members ; not only did he distribute on ac- count of the Society when duty called upon him to act, but when the means were in- competent to the exigency his private purse was never spared. The writer of this arti- cle had the honor of being admitted to his friendship ; he knew his worth, and sensibly feels his loss. To the Poor, what shall be said ! you have lost him who never turned aside from your distresses, but whose heart melted at your complaints, and whose hands bestowed what benevolence dictated. But thou, his amiable Relict, has still greater cause for sorrow : thou has lost, indeed thou hast lost the best of husbands, and thy children the tenderest of parents! But He, whose will it was to take, shall still be a hus- band to thee, and a father to thy little ones. O.
