Historicai ! Vide " Jurors Keports and Awards, Mew Zealand Exhibition." Jurors : J, A. Ewen, J. Butterworth, T. C. Bkinner. "So far as the Colony is concerned, the djeing of materials is almost entirely confined to the re-dyeing of Articles of Dress and Upholstery, a most useful art, for there aro many kinds of material that lose their colour before the texture is half worn. G. Hirsch, of Dunedin (Dtjnedin Dye WoEKa, G-eorge street, opposite Royal George Hotel) exhibits a case of specimens of Dyed Wools, Silks, and Feathers, and dyed Sheepskins. The colors on the whole are very fair, and reflect considerable credit on the Exhibitor, to whom the Jurors recommended an Honorary Certificate should be awarded." Honorary Certificate, 629: Gustav Hirsch Dunedin, for specimens of Dyeiag in Silk Feathers, &c.
