I notice that yon propose to buy sheep in Hawkes Bay and fatten them ill your district. I shall be glad to assist you in procuring tho sheep, if you will send me particulars of tho number required ; and as you speak of a large number doubtless the price can be arranged satisfactorily, especially if the demand is to be for a lengthened period. At present I have on my books 11 number of suitable sheep, and my stockagent is constantly riding about tho country, and is in a position to select sheep and make tho necessary arrangements with the sellers. I shall be glad to get full particulars from you, and trust business will result to our mutual satisfaction. — l'aithfully yours, F. C. Fui.ton, Managing Director.
