" Dear Sir—l beg to return my acknowledgments fur the copy of your Work on Cod Liver Oil, with which you have haveured we. I was already acquainted with it, and had perused it. some time previously with considerable gratification, especially the chapter devoted to the consideration of the adulterauou of Cod Liver Oil. " I have paid, as you are aware, much attention to the subject of the adulteration of drugs. Amongst the articles examined, L have not overlooked one so important as Cod Liver Oil, and this more particularly since it is a very favourite remedy with me, and is, moreover, so liable to deterioration by admixture with other, especially inferior Fish Oils. I may state that I have more thau once, at different times, subjected your Light lirowu Oil to che mical analysis, and this unknown to yourself, and 1 have always found it, to be free from all impurity, and rich In the constituents of bile. " So great is my confidence in the article, that I usually pre- scribe it iu preference to any other, in order to wake sure of ob taining the remedy in its purest and best condition.
