    I'm transcribing a ledger of meeting minutes from an orphanage dated 1903. Some of the children are sick and there is a mention of a medicine. I'm hoping someone here can help me decipher what this says. Photo included.

    "There had been two bottles of Duo Cros [?] mixture donated one by herself, and one by" ....

    Part of 190s orphanage meeting minutes

    Thank you for taking a look. Any advice is appreciated.

    Hi Jodi,

    Without more of the script for an example, it looks like it might actually be "Dr Cros mixture."

    Maybe.
