Plague water, would have been a best-seller for Morton & Bedell, as the Plague continued to haunt London until the nineteenth century. Their recipe may have contained any, or all, of these ingredients: Rue, Agremony, Wormwood, Selandine, Red Sage, Balm, Mugwort, [Snap] Dragons, Fetherfew, Burnett, Sorril,Tormentil, Scordium, Cardus-Benidictus, Dittanter, Bittany, Marigolds, Scabius, Peniroyal, Rosemary, Angellico leaves, Elingcompane roots, Cowslips, Burage, Clovegilly flowers, Aniseeds, Coriander, steeped in white wine and brandy, before distilling... The Beinecke Library holds a similar trade card for Charles Bedell on his own, dated c1757, presumably after parting ways with Morton (of whom no more is known). Bedell was appointed """"Distiller in Ordinary to his Majesty"""" in January of 1758, upon the death of C. Collins, a position which he held, according to the registers, until at least 1820.
