CERTIFICATE OF ANALYSIS.

I hereby certify that I bave very carefully analysed a sample of Sherry "AMORO£O," received from MESS. H. BUTTONJEE & SON of Hongkong, and from the results of my investigations I have formed a very favourable opinion as to its qualities as s genuine and healthful wine,

It is a are and wholesome product, made from the best grown grapes, and

is entirely free from all foreign ingredients, and possesses tunic, and sustaining properties to a high degree.

I consider that it will prove invaluable for bracing the nerves, and invigorating system.
