The following are Specimen Testimonial! nst received from this District: — o STEWART DAWSON, & CO., , .- " Auckland. 11 Thames, 18th April, 1884. " Dear Sir,—Seeing that you are in Auck* land, I write to say that five years ago I sent to Liverpool for one of your English Silver Levers as advertised for £3 15s. I duly received the watah, and my son (William Thorburn) Ins ca riedit every day since then at his work —mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it ha 3 never cost him one penny for repairs. The watch is a splendid timekeeper, and would cost in Auckland, at least Ten Guineas. My son could hare sold the watch a score of times, for d üble the price that it cost him, but w.ould 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 perfect liberty to publish this if you wish, as I am well k.nown hero. " I remain yours truly, - 11 Wh, Laug Thoebubk, Engineer, " Sararu, Thames." " Tararu, Thames, April 26; h, 1884. " Messrs Stewaet Dawson & Co., " Dear Sirs, —About four year* ago 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. I did so, and- received the sime. I have carried the watch about with me every day since : it is an excellent n'mekecper, and has stood lots of knocking about, without being in any way affected. By the nature of my business I am cozstantly 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 watch did not stop, and it keeps as correct time now as it did when I first received it. " I am yours truly, " Richabd H. Ellis, Storekeeper, 11 Tararu, Thames." ALL LETIERS AND ORDERS TO BE ADDRESSED-TO Stewart Datvsonfy Co* 195, Queen Street, . AUCKLAND.
