SUMMARY

Wellcome Collection catalog record confirmed by direct fetch: Public Domain Mark; ESTC-estimated date [1739?]; author Dennis de Coetlogon (per catalog); publisher J. Brett, London. Cited here for its title alone, which is a contemporaneous published claim, within a year of Stephens's public disclosure, that her medicine 'cannot be a specific for the stone' -- documented period dispute of the marketed universal-cure claim, independent of the later French Academy and English committee examinations. No full text of this pamphlet was fetched; only the catalog-confirmed title and imprint are used.
