A CAUTION to the Public in general, but
more particularly to Merchants, Captains
of Ships, and those concerned in trading to
the East or Weft-Indies, North- America,&c.
THE daily complaints of injuries received by spuri
ous medicines fold for Maredant's Drops, pre
pared foldy by me, requires the most serious attention,
as well in fafety to the patient, as my own interest.
Those Impostures not only attempt to deceive by having
bills printed like mine, and bottlesof the fame mould
and inferiptiot, but are even daring enough to counter
feit my hand writing ; some I have punilhcd, notwith
standing which, the fame mal-praftices are continued ;
others use more caution by vending medicines under the
names of MERRDEN T,MERIDENT,NORDON,&e.
and several make use of their own names,alledging their
being assistants bo me. Can it be possible for any man to
think me so weak, as to disclose such a valuable secret
to my servants, more efyecially those of so menial a fort
as to be employed in the distribution of pamphlets, pack
ing up and delivering boxes at the different inns,with eve
ry drudgery attendant? JOHN NORTON.
