A book of 25 tickets will be forwarded to any subscriber for the sum of £l2. The entire satisfaction given to my numerous supporters during the past seven years warrants me in stafing that I am confident that this will be a crowning success, and will fill very rapidly; therefore early application is necessary. If so desired, any subscriber who may be a prize winner can forward their voucher or vouchers through their banker for payment, when same, if found correct, will be duly honored. Remember 1 The Gaming and Lotteries Amendment Act comes into force on the Ist November, so that clients will no doubt realise Ada’s expectations, and make this a pumper event. N.B.—As usual, the names and addresses of the principal prize takers, also the names and addresses of the gentlemen who form the Committee, will be forwarded to all the leading papers throughout New Zealand. Results will be forwarded not later than 31st October. Ada Mantua’s First Prize of £2600 on the Melbourne Cup last year went to Biverton, Otago.
