" Dear Shy- Seeing that you are in Auckland, 1 Write td say that nearly five years u^o I sent to Liverpool for one of your English Silver Levers as advertised for £3 15s. I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorbrirn) has carried it every day since then at his work — mining, bush work, riding} etc., and it has never cost him one penny for repairs. The watch is a splendid timekeeper, and would cost in Auckland at least Ton Guineas. My son could have sold the watch a score of times, for double the pi ice that it coet him, but wdtild not part with it on any account. I may a I © say that I know several here who have sent for yoi.tr watches, and they have given the greatest satisfaction. You 1 are at perfect liberty to publish thid If you 1 wislij as I am 1 well known here. " I remain yours trrilys " Wm. Lan& TtioftßUßfif, Engineer, " Tararuj Thames." " Tararu, Thames, April 20th, 1884. "Messrs Stewart Dawson & C 0.- ,-" Dear Sirs, — About four years ago when in want of a watch} I was recommended to send to your establishment at Liverpool for" Oiie of your £3 15s English Silver Hunting Levers. I did so, und received the name. I have carried the watch about with me every d.iy since ; it is an excel' lent timekeeper, and has stood lots of knocking about, without being in any way affected. By the nature of my business I am constantly riding, and on one occasion tho horse 1 was riding fell, and I was thrown to the ground with such force as to smash the gla^s into atoms, but the watch did not stop, and it keeps as correct time now as it did when I first received it. " I am, yours truly, " Richard H. Ellis, Storekeeper, "Tararu, Thames." ALL LETTERS AND ORDERS TO BE ADDRKSQED— TO STEW ARID AMON & Go, 195, QUICKNrBTKHMST, AUUKLANU. '
