I know him to be a most trustworthy and reliable man of business, and the position he held in Canterbury, England, as leading Chemist of that city, justifies my opinion that he is well fitted to hold as good a position in this Colony, and to have the entire confidence of any medical man for whom he may dispense. " A. Chevallier Preston, " M.R.C.S., Eng. " Amberley, Canterbury, N.Z., " July, 1881." " This is to certify that I haye known Mr A. W. Gardner for the last fifteen years. During the whole of that time he carried on tne business of Chemist, &c, in a most skilful and satisfactory way, to the entire satisfaction of the neighbourhood. He is much above the average in his knowledge of the iise of drugs, etc., and deserves a large share of success in business. " Henry George Sadler, "M.R.C.S., E., L.S.A. " Oswald House, Canterbury." " I have much pleasure in giving a testimonial to my friend Mr Gardner. I have known Mr Gardner for years, and for the past six years have done business with him, and have always found him ready to oblige me. As a Chemist and Druggist he is a first-class man, and his knowledge of Surgical Appliances makes him a most useful man for general practitioners, and I can strongly recommend him to my brother practitioners in New Zealand. I regret very much his leaving us, as I know his fellow-citizens do. I only hope his health will improve, and I have no fears as to his success, and I wish him every prosperity in his new sphere. (Signed) " F. Wacher, " Surgeon to the Kent and Canterbury Hospital ; Medical Officer of Health to the Canterbury Urban Sanitary Authority ; Medical Officer to the Canterbury Incorporation. " Kingsbridge, Canterbury, "January, 1880." " I have great pleasure in bearing testimony to the high character of Mr Austen W. Gardner, who has for several years conducted a first-class Chemists' and Druggists' Business in the City of Canterbury. Since the opening of this Asylum, five y^ars ago, Mr Gardner has supplied the Drugs, &c, to the Institution, and I have always been satisfied with the way in which the orders have been executed.
