3FREDERICK V. RUSHTON,
4(Son of the late Wm. L. Rushton, Originator and Senior Partner of the late Firm of Rushton, Clark & Co.)
6CHEMIST AND DRUGGIST,
7WHOLESALE AND RETAIL,
8SOLE PROPRIETOR OF RUSHTON'S GENUINE
9COD-LIVER OIL,
10And all Preparations known as Rushton's.
12Importer of French and English Chemicals, Perfumery, Tooth, Hair, and Nail Brushes, &c.,
14AT THE OLD ESTABLISHMENT,
15No. 10 ASTOR HOUSE, Corner of Barclay Street, and
16417 BROADWAY, Corner of Canal Street,
17(Brandreth House).
19The late firm of Rushton, Clark & Co., having been dissolved by its own limitation, and by the decease of my Father, the Founder and Originator of the Establishment (the late Wm. L. Rushton), I beg leave to announce to the Patrons of the late Firm, and to the Public generally, that I will carry on the business in all its branches, at the Old Establishment, No. 10 ASTOR HOUSE, Corner of Barclay St., and No. 417 BROADWAY, Corner Canal Street, and respectfully solicit a share of the patronage hitherto so generously extended to the late Mr. Rushton.
21Having been connected with the business of the late firm for upwards of ten years, and educated in the Establishment, under the immediate supervision of my Father, my experience, I feel confident, will enable me to prosecute the business as successfully and as satisfactorily as when under his charge. Possessing the original recipes for the manufacture of the various popular medicines of the late Wm. L. Rushton, and of all the firms he originated, and was Senior Partner of, and being the only person entitled to use his name, and having obtained my knowledge of their mode of preparation from him, I feel that I can safely claim for them the same character for superiority and purity for which they always have been noted.
23I beg to assure my friends and the public generally, that my individual attention will be given to the management of the business, hoping to merit the same patronage and kindness so long bestowed on my Father.
25I remain, yours, most respectfully,
27FREDERICK V. RUSHTON.
29NEW YORK, January, 1855.
