HOLMES, Tent, Hose, and Oil-skin Maker, Kumara, , Sir —You stated to me when you look nay order for Oil-skin Coats for myself and Mr Gillbanka, that the articles would be much superior to anything of the kind I had ever seen before; I desire to inform you that I have used bil-skins tor the last sixteen years, blit I never found any to answer so well as yoiirs. They are thoroughly waterproof, and are comfortable to walk in. It is a matter of surprise to ine that you have not advertised such admirable articles, as I feel convinced that they need only to be known to be Extensively worn. Reference to Mr Passmore, farmer, Teremakau, or to Mr Gillbank, will prove that I have hot overstated the cage.—l am, sir, yours truly, John Wills. ■VrOTICE TO GROUND SLUICERS il In particular, And to the public at lai-ge.
