. a D VfE.§#E -I; S: B ME..N-.T. Trinity Square, Towkr Hitx, 1, Postern Row, London, ■ r.ioth June, 1871. CoiMPiiAiNTS having been made tc me of the quality of Ruins lately made lip in this market by one or two houses, for shipment to Australia, I think it; my doty to address.jou on the mutter, as I find the Rums complained of have been made up with large proportions of Fen-'ug (East India Muni) 'and Mauritius, mixed'with West India Ruin, thereby enabling the sellers to quote lower prices ; but the result of such a mixture can only give a coarse, raw Rum, utterly unsuited to the requirements of the Colonies, and far below the quality of the Rums hitherto shipped from this market. For many years past, and up to tho liquidation of the old firm of Lemon Hart and Son in the latter pirt. of last- year, I personally attended to the val ting of all Ruins sent out by that firm ; and in making up my Rums now for Australia, my aim is at least lo equal the standard of quality which I always prepared for that market, aud which was so well known. I have no connection with the gentleman who purchased the assets of the old firm from the trustee, and who now trades in the namo of Lemon Hart anD Son, at George-street, Tower Hill ; aud no Rum is prepared by mo except that branded only "Lemon Hart's Rum, London." As with Rums bearing my brand I use only Demerara and West India Rums, I in all ca--es hand a dock certificate with invoice. At same time, where buyers may require a lower quality, I am always prepared to submit much lower prices, but without my full brand. Yours faithfully, LEMON HART. A DVERTISEMENTTrinity Square, Tower Hill, 1, Postkrn Row, London, mhJuly, 1871. My attention has been called to a circular dated 24th March, 1871, appearing in the Journal of Commerce of Victoria, dated Mel- | bourne, 18th May, 1871. i This circular purports to bo issued by the ! now extinct firm of Lemon HART & f::ON, and j is evidently designed to induce the belief that ! it emanates from the former partners of that firm, and that the business is still carried on by them. I hasten, therefore, to inform you that such is not the fact; that the old firm of Lemon 1Ia»t & So* no longer exists, having been dissolved in November last; that I, its senior partner, am no party to the circular issued in my late firm's name, and have no \ interest whatever in the business there referred to, having established myself under the name 1 of Lemon Hart & Co. at the above address ; • and that tho circular above referred to emanates from Mr. White, of Tenby, who, ' having bought, the assets of the late firm at a j fixed sum, thus unwarrantably assumes to use I its name and title. 1 The further statement in the above circular, ! as to the staff who have been specially em- | ployed in the preparation of the Rum shipped | by my late firm, refers to the retention of ! one or two dock clerks, whose only business, I as employes, was to carry out the instructions given either by my late father or myself, the secret of the whole matter being, of course, ! the judicious selection of the various kinds of j Rum required for the purpose, which is only ; to be arrived at by many years of experience, j ! and I need not add that this part of the bu- ; j siness was not done by the " staff" but by j i myself. j j All rum shipped by me will be branded j "Lemon Hart's Rom, London." I beg to j enclose you my circular of the 10th June, in reference to this matter, and to the quality of | the Rum lately shipped from here by one or j two houses. i Faithfully yours, LEMON HART.
