T’eh fegooish cron as sauchey myr jough lajer, meen as slane creen; lesh ooilley ny dooghyssyn jeh yn reih stoo ta jeant. | I have carefully separated and tested the sample of a Strong Drink; Irish Whisky and labelled “INISHARGY”, that I received from you and found that it is healthy, and that there isn’t any portion of fuel-oil in it. It is without fault and is safe as Strong Liquer, mild and fully mature; with all the natures of the best stuff that is made. | |
