Not one I have seen before...neat bottle! I've done a bit of digging in New Brunswick but with limited success.

yeah that was a good dump. my cousin and i dug the dump when we were young, about 12 years old i guess. i had three fish tubs full of bottles plus my cousin had lots as well and i know there was more there but water kept coming in the further down we dug. those were the days.

I think this may be a small size of a French liqueur called the "Old Priest," cure being the French for "priest." If you want to sell this bottle, I'd love to own it as a go-with for my larger bottle.

thanks for the information. i never considered another language. my guess would have been an old type of "snake oil" that the doctor may have gotten a hold of, but your version makes more sense. i never really thought of selling it but thank you for the interest and the information.
