I Eopst respectfully take leave to call the attention of the inhabitants of Australasia to the fact that I Messrs HENEY, CUIIEAN and CO., ' Wholesale Druggists, t)f NEW YOEK, have Agencies in various parts, and that their Travellers are going all over the 'country ■"-vending SPIJEIOUS IMITATIONS of my Pills and Ointment/which they make in New Yobk, and which bear 'in sorpe instahc-: >^® a *%y. es their trade mark thus— j@\ I pMfe i~ whilst on other labels of 9 a ig|p 21| this trash it is omitted, the\^||sM better to deceive you, but W .^xe words " New York" IHSB®^ are retained.; Much of this fictitious stuff is sold in the Auction Eooms of Sydney and elsewhere, and readily finds its. way into the back settlements. These are vile frauds, as I do not allow my Medicines even to be. sold in any part of the United States; they are only made by me at 533, Oxford street, London. " v The same, people are circulating a report that my business is about to be: formed into a Company, which is utterly false. .' ■ ;• ' "■., .., ; I most earnestly appeal to that sense of British justice, which I feel sure I may venture upon asking from* my kindcountr'ymen and countrywomen in their distant homes, to assist me, as far as may lay in their power, in denouncing this shameful Am erican Fraud,: by cautioning their friends lest they be duped into buying villainous compoundsstyled " Holloway's Pills and Ointment" with any New York label thereon..", ' Each Pot and Box of the Genuine Medicines bears, the British Government Stamp, with the words "' Holloway's Pills and Ointment, London," engraved thereon. • On the label is the address, 533, Oxfokd Stbeet, London, where alone they are manufactured. ; (Signed) ■ THOMAS HOLLO WAY.
