Help with old bottle (PANOPEPTON)

[~Stig~]

Hi folks, I dug this up in Inverness (Scotland) at the weekend , has anyone got any info on it?
"PANOPEPTON BREAD AND BEEF PEPTONE FAIRCHILD"
And stamped on the bottom reads....
"W.T.CO. 6 U.S.A. PAT.JAN.5.1892"
If it's an American bottle then i'ts a long way from home!

Sorry about the picture quality, I can add more if needed!
I guess it's older than 1900 as there is no seam going through the lip!

Thanks, Kev.

W.T. & CO stands for Whitall Tatum & Company Millville, New Jersey (1857-1901).

Fairchild might be a city in NJ. I'm pretty sure that any type of pepin or dirivitive of pepin is a stomach med for an upset stomach

Thanks, I thought it may have been some type of sauce bottle. I guess it will come under the 'Cure' category now?
Is this a common or rare bottle to be found in the USA?

Fairchild Brothers was in New York. They made quite a few digestion related medicines. The bottles are relatively common (here).

Stig, you ever race autos? I may have seen you on Top Gear?
