"Bear Sir, —Seeing that you are in Auckland, I write to cay that nearly five years ago I sent to Liverpool toy une of jour English Silver Levers as advertised for £3 15a. I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorburh) has carried it every day since then at his work—mining, bush work, riding, etc., and it has never coat 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 watch a score of times, for d.uble the price that it coefc him, but would not part with it on any account. I may also say that I kaow several here who havo 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 THqeßtrßN, Engineer, ' " Tararu, Thameß." ' " Tararu, Thames, April 26-h, 1884. " Messrs Stkwaet Dawson & Co., " Dear Sirs, —About four years ago when in want of a watoh, 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 same. I have carried the watch about with me every day since: it is an excellent timekeeper, and has 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 amaßh the glass into atoms, but the watch did itot stop, and it beeps as correct time now as jit did when I first received it. " I am yours truly, " Richabd H. Em-is, Storekeeper, "Tararu, Thames." ALL LETIERS AND ORDERS TO BE ADDBESSBD-rO Stewart Dawsonfy Co. 195, QueenfiStreot, AUCKLAND.
