" Dear Sir,— Seeing that you are in Auckland, I write to say that nearly five years a»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 Thorburn) has carried it every (foy since then at his *vorl< — mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it has never co*t him one penny for repairs. The watch is a splendid timekeeper, and would cost in Auckland at least Ten Guineas. My son coivfH have sold the watch a score of times, for double the price that it cont him, but would not part with it on any account. I may nho sny that I know several here who have sent for your watches, and they have given the satisfaction. You are at perfect liberty to publish this if you wish, as I am well known here. " I remain yours truly, " Wm. Lang Thohburn, Engineer, 11 Ttiraru, Thames."
" Tarnru, Thames, April 26th, 1884.
"Messrs Stewart Dawson & Co., " Dear Sirs, — About four years ago when in want of a watch, I was recommended to send to your establishment at Liverpon' for one ot ! your £3 15s En&iish Silvei Hunting Levers. I did so, md receive 1 the same. I have carried the watch about with me every day since ; it is an excellent timekeeper, and has stood lots oi knocking about, without being in any way affected. By the n.iture 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 iorqe a> to smash the ghus into atoms, but tin watch did not stop, find it keeps as correct time now as it did when I first received it. " I am, yours truly, " Richaud H. Ei.TJis, Stm-pkfpper, "Tiiraru, Thames." ALL LETTERS AND ORDERS TO Bk ADDRKSSED—TO
