then fire the Ouitter, after the following form or figure, 



fire the Half-moon figure almofl through the fl^in. 



and the fpecks within the circle mufl be burned quite through 

 the flvin with an iron much the fhape of a tobacco-pipe's 

 fhank, then put into each hole the fize of a fmall pea of Subli- 

 mate Mercury, wrapped in Soft Paper; then cover the part 

 with Black Pitch and a very little Tallow made warm together, 

 and laid on in the form of a Charge ; bind it clofe to the part 

 for four days ; then cut the ties or bandages off, and let the 

 Charge drop off, of itfelf ; when the part is cracked around, 

 and the core is almoil out, fcald the part with equal parts of 

 Black Pitch, Tar, and Tallow, made quite fcalding hot to- 

 gether, and immediately poured into the wound; the above 

 fcalding to be repeated twice a-week. The above method 

 properly obferved will promote a cure. 



To Deftroy an ULCER that Remains in a QUITTER-BONE, 



Take Oil of Vitriol two drams. Sublimate Mercury in fine 

 powder one dram, mixed together in a fmall wide-mouthed 

 bottle for ufe; and when ufed, fiiake the above well together, 

 then take a blunt Butcher's fkewer and wrap the end round 

 with Tow, then dip it in the above mixture, and thruft it into 

 the bottom of the Ulcer, and trace the Ulcer round within- 

 fide. The above will deilroy any Ulcer. The above applica- 

 tion is not to be repeated for nine days to come; the above 

 drelling will caufe the part to difcharge much.
