"Dear Sir,—l have much pleasure in certifying that, having frequently had occasion to make use of Borthwick's Patent Anti-fouling Composition for the bottoms of iron vessels belonging to the New Zealand Steam Naviga tion Company, I found it much superior to Peacock's Patent in keeping off marine shells and other fouling matter, more particularly so when put on under your superintendence, and also in the case of the s.s.
