"Doctor" James Henry McLean as a teenager, worked for a pharmacist in Philadelphia. His claim to being a doctor apparently rests on his having taken a single medical course at the University of Philadelphia. In 1849 he arrived in St. Louis. His company manufactured and advertised widespread cures and remedies, including McLean’s Volcanic Oil Liniment, Tar Wine Lung Balm, Strengthening Cordial & Blood Purifier, Liver and Kidney Balm, and Liquid Vermifuge.
