To avoid and escape imposition Of foreign and
native Quscks, naOze numerous N boston thsn

deceived by the lying boasts, Misrepresentation,
false promises and pretensions Of
FOREIGN AND NATIVE GUACKS,
Who know little of the nature and character Of

which never existed 10 any part Of the world
others exhibit diplomas OF the dead, how obtained
unknown; not only assn ming and advcrtisln'
In names Of those inserted in the diplomas but to
further their imposition assume names Of Other
celebrated physicians long siEce dead. Neither be
deceived By

the land but, alas nothing IL sa!o Of the ksl'

Notwithstanding he foregoing facts ar,
