These formulas come from a notebook I found years ago in an old house. It contains the potions and recipes used to manufacture household products and some of the patent medicines of the 1860's, including a cure for cancer. I will transcribe them as written to the best of my ability but much of the language is unfamiliar. I offer this for the interest of the reader only. Many of the ingredients are hazardous in the extreme. Do not try or believe any of the claims made.
Mix the Ivory Black, Molasses and Vinegar together, then mix the Sperm Oil and Oil of Vitriol separately and then add them to the other mixture.
