Dr. Stuart Concerning
Mr. Graham
I have given you on the
[o]ther page a Prescription in the
form of an Electuary which I
think is more convenient for a
traveller than an Infusion
Wishing all success I am
always
Dear Dr.
Entirely Yours

Take one ounce of Powdered valerian root half an ounce of Powdered Columbo root one drachm of Powdered Cinnamon two drachms of prepared Rust one and a half ounces of Conserve of orange two drachms of Syrup of Ginger with enough simple Syrup to make an Electuary. Label: Cephalic Electuary a Tea spoonful an hour or more before dinner
