I, ROBERT CLAYTON of Providence Place, Felling Gate in the County of Durham,
Bone Setter, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates to a liniment or lotion consisting of certain ingredients.
which I have discovered to have when in combination in about the proportions
which I will specify valuable curative properties when applied to open sores or
wounds, bruises, or sprains or-when acting from the skin-upon other forms of
disease of the bones or internal parts.
The liuiment consists of three ingredients viz. to make a quantity of one
imperial quart approximately
5 drachms of Sulphuric Acid.
7 drachms of Spirits of Turpentine
and the remaining quantity made up of best purified Colza oil.
The process of mixing is effected by warming the oil (if required owing to low
temperature) then adding the turpentine and afterwards the sulphuric acid and
shaking them well together in a vessel closed by a cork or stopper when ebullition
takes place during which the cork or stopper is kept slightly loose for a few
minutes when it may be tightly inserted or closed and the liniment is ready for.
application requiring only to be shaken up.
Although I have named only the essential ingredients others may be added to
give colour or odour or to alter the consistency to that of an ointment in which
form the curative effects will be the same. I have given about the proportion of
the two important agents, but these may be varied to suit the special cases in
which the liniment is required to be used, they are however based upon what
I have found most efficacious in my practice.
Dated this 28th day of December 1885.
