The following are a few of the Testimonials received by the Manufacturer as to its, excellent quality : Public Works Office, Wellington, November 15, 1875.—Sir, —I am glad to bear testimony as far as my' experience goes to the goodness of the above ; in a little time I expect to hear more about it from some of our District Engineers, and shall send you the result of their observations. For my own part, I think it is a very valuable, useful paint.—Your obedient servant, John Blackett. Public Works Office, Taranaki, December 9, 1875.—T0 John Blackett, Esq.—Dear Sir, — Mr. Louisson lately completed a contract with this department for painting nineteen bridges, between New Plymouth and Patea district, using his Hematite Paint. The work was carried out satisfactorily, and so far as I am able to form an opinion of a new material (that c ;n only he tested by time), consider it superi. :■ to any other paint that has been used for lr : :e purposes, and I intend for the future to re ■ .’.mend its use for bridge work in prefereiu. to other known material. It has, furth. ■, the great recommendation of cheapness : compared with the ordinary paint.— Octay. ...i Cakbington, Engineer-in-Charge, West Coast. Engineer’s Office, Nelson, January 24, 18/4. —Sir, —l have much pleasure in expressing my high appreciation of your Hematite Paint, which has been used by the Provincial Government for painting bridges, ironwork, &c. I consider it far superior to any imported Paint I have ever had used for such purposes, and strongly recommend it, feeling sure that its superior qualities over other Paints will be generally admitted.— W. LIGHTFOOT, Superintendent Public Works. Nelson, February 28, 1874.—Sir,—I have used your Hematite Paint for the last two years, and have much pleasure in bearing testimony to its merits. It is admirably adapted for marine purposes, and I consider it superior to any imported Paint I have seen used during an experience of nearly thirty years. — James S. Onoss, Harbor-Master. Nelson, December 31, 1873.—Sir, —I have tried your Hematite Paint, and find it applicable for either Wood or Iron, hut with the latter it appears to form an especial affinity. After roughly scraping off the old rusty scales and applying this Oxide, it at once soaks into the Iron, and prevents any further corroskn. Chas. F. Watts. E W PREMISES CUBA-STREET, N 0 W O P E N. H.
