' . " Thames, 18th April, 1884 "Dear Sit/— Seeing that you are in Auckland, I write to say that nearly five years ago I sent toi Liverpool f«; one of your English Silver Lowers as advertised for £$ 15s. I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorburn} has carried it every day since then at his work —mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it. ha-* never cost him one penny for repairs. Tne watch is a splendid timekeeper, and would r,o»t in Auckland at least Ten Guineas. My son could have sold the watch a score of times, /or d üble the price that it cost him, but would not part with it on any account. I may" also say that I know several here who have sent for your watches, and they have given the greatest satisfaction. You are at perfoct liberty to publish this if you wish, as I uni well known here. " I remain" yours truly, " War, Laug Thosbubn, Engineer, 11 Tararu, Thames." " Tararu, Thames, April 26th, 1884.

I did so, and received the sime. 1 have carried the watch about with me every day siuoo : it is an excellent timekeeper, and haß 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 smash the glass into atoms, but the watoh did not stop, and it keeps as correct time now as it did when I firstroceived it.
