Copy of a Letter from Messrs. Gordon & Gotch. Dated Melbourne, July 25. “Dear Sir, —We have found out that there has been a considerable trade doing in Counterfeiting your Pills. That a man, (whose name we know,) made for a certain person a machine, rolling out One Hundred and Fifty Pills at once. That labels were printed, and dispatched up the Country in great numbers, by one Boulton (we are informed). He failed about three weeks ago, and the machine was offered to a friend of ours for sale, which we suspect is at work somewhere. What can we do for you in this matter 1 Something should be done at once. If we were sure you would approve <Vf it, we would- set the Detectives at work, and soon ferret the nest out. “ We are. <fcc., (Signed) “GORDON GOTCH.” In many places abroad, the Government stamp to these Medicines has lately been forged, and affixed to an immense quantity of spurious Ointment and Pills, and sold to the Public as my preparations. Please to observe, therefore, that the words “ HOLLOWAY’S PILLS AND OINTMENT, LONDON,” besides being on the British Government Label, as heretofore, are woven in the water-mark of every leaf of the Pamphlets without which the Medicine is not genuine. Also, be careful to observe that the address on the covers of the Pots, and the labels of the Boxes, is “ 244, Strand, London,” and that there is no initial before the • £ Holloway.” Parties who may be defrauded by Vendors selling spurious “ Holloway’s Pills and Ointment,” are invited to communicate the particulars to me or to Messrs. Gordon & Gotch, of Collins-street, Melbourne, when legal proceedings will be immediately instituted against the offenders, and an ample remuneration given to Informants 1 ' for their trouble, and a pledge not to do divulge their names.
