" Dear Sir,— Seeing that you are in Auckland, I write to say that nearly five years ago 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 Thorburn) has carried it every any since then at his work — mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it has never cost him one penny i'or repairs. The watch is a splendid timekeeper, an.d would cost in Auckland at least Ten Guineas. My son could have sold the watch a score of times, for double the price that it cot-'t him, but would not part with it on any account. I may a I 0 siiy that 1 know several here who have sent for your watches, and they have given the greatest satisfaction. You are at perfect liberty to publish this if you wish, as I am well known here. " I remain yours truly, " Wm. Lang Thorburn, Engineer, " Tararu, Thames." " Taiaru, Thames, April 26th, 1884. " Messrs Stewart Dawson & Co., " Dear Sirs, — About four yearsago when in want of a watch, I was recommended to send to your establishment at Liverpool for one of your £3 15s English Silver Hunting Levers. J did so, und received the same. I have earned the watch about with me every day since ; it\ is an excellent timekeeper, and has sto >d lots of knocking about, without being in any way affected. By the nature of my business I am constantly riding, and on one occasion the horse I was riding fell, and I was thrown to the ground with such force as to smash the ghu-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. Elus, Storekeeper, " Tararu, Thames." ALL LETTERS AND ORDERS TO BE « ADDRESSED— TO STEWART DAWSM&Oo, 195, qUEEN STRJfIISU, AuokLand. , (
