" Dear Sir,— Seeing that you aro in Auckland, I ■write to say that nearly five years ago I sent to Liverpool for one of your English Silver Levers as advertised for £3 15s. I duly received the watch, and my son (William Thorburn) has carried it ! every day since then at his work, mining, bush ! work, riding, Ac, and it has never cost him one | penny for repairs. The watcfe is a splendid time- j keeper, and would cost in Auckland at least Teu Guineas. My son could havo sold tho watch a ' score of tim«s, for double the price that it cost him, but would not part with it on any account. I may also say that I know several here who have sent for your watches, and they have given the greatest satisfaction. You aro at perfect liberty to publish this if you wish, as lam well known here.
