Notes: Copy 1 Note: Bound after this item is a single leaf printed on recto 'Copie de la demande faite par Monsieur Sorel ... ©  Messieurs Mahon fr©·res ... avant sa circulaire o©£ il pr©♭tend d©♭voiler le proc©♭cd©♭ de Messieurs Mahon, pour la gu©♭rison de la teigne'. MS. inscription on first item 're©ʹu ... le 12 de 9bre 1809' and on verso of 'Copie' a note in same hand (also 12 Nov. 1809) stating that Sorel, a cousin of the Mahons, had published his version of their secret remedy after they had rejected his demand for a share of the profits. Evidently Sorel's information was inaccurate as the Mahon family continued to exercise its monopoly until 1841 when O. Figuier was allowed to publish a chemical analysis of the remedy (see his 'Teigne faveuse). These items bound with Mahon, Jeune. Recherches sur le si©·ge des teignes. 1829.
