CERTIFICATE OF ANALYSIS.
1 hereby certify that I have very carefully analysed a sample of Sherry "AMORO£D"-received from MESIRE, H. BUTTONJEB & SON of Hongkong, and from the results of my investigations I have formed a very favourable opinion. as to its qualities as a genuine and healthful wine.
It is a jure and wholesome product, mado from the best grown grapes, and. is entirely free from all foreign ingredients, and porgesses tonic and sustaining properties to a high degree.
I consider that it will prove invaluable for bracing the nerves, and invigorating the system.
