" Dear Sir, — Seeing that you are in Auckland, I write to say that nearly five year* ago I sent to Liverpool for one of your English Silver Levers as Advertised for £3 15b. I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorbnrn) has carried it every day since then at his »rork — mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it has never eo&t him one penny for repairs. The watch is a splendid timekeeper, and would cost in Auckland at least Ten; Guineas. My son could have sold the wutch a score of times, for double tfrts price that it co?t him, but would not ptfrt with it on any account. I may «I o s«y that I 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 Tiioubdrn, Engineer, " Tararu, Thames." " Taumi, Thames, April 2Gth, 1884. " Messrs Stewart Dawson & Co., " Dear Sirs, — About four years ago when in want of a wutch, I was recommended to send to your establishment at Liverpool for one of your £3 15s Eni>iish Silver j Hunting Levers. 1 did so, nnd received , the same. I liavu earned the watch about i with me every day since ; it is an excel- j lent timekeeper, and bus 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 the horse I was riding fell, and I was thrown to the ground with., such force as to ainash the #laxs 'into atoms, .but .the watch did not stop, and "it keeps as correct tinio now as it did when I first received it. " 1 am, y jure truly, " Richard H. Ellis? Storekeeper, "Tararu, Thames." ALL LETTERS AND ORDERS TO BE .: ADDIiKSSED— TO ' Auckland.
