Possible match
The work is attributed to "H. N. DRAPER, F.C.S." There is a Harry Napier Draper FCS, according to WorldCat (also without the suffix). His major work appears to be Manual of the Medicinal Preparations of Iron (1864) and his name shows up in the Pharmaceutical Journal and Nature in approximately the right period. (See here for a letter printed in Nature, 1873.) There is nothing positive, however, that confirms that this is the correct H. N. Draper. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 02:34, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
