My fee will amount to somewhere from twenty to forty dollars.The Pharyngeal Syringe persons may use upon themselves; but the Laryngeal and Nasal Syringes, can only be used by an experienced surgical hand. The syringes are put up in cases, & sold only in sets. They are $10 a case, embracing the three.Very Respectfully YoursIra Warren
