Trinity Square, Tower Hill, 1, Poatern Row, London, 10th June, 1871. /COMPLAINTS having been made to me of \J the quality of Rums lately made up in this market by ono or two houses, for shipment to Australia, I think it my duty to address you on the matter, as I find the Rums complained of have been made up with large proportions of Penang (East India Rum) tmd Mauritius, mixed with West India Rum, thereby enabling tho sellers to quote lower prices j but the result of such a mixtue canonly give a coarse, raw rum, utterly unsuited to the requirements of the Colonies, and far below the quality of the Rums hitherto Bhipped from this market. For many years past, and up tg tho liquidation of tho old firm of Lemon Hart & S-w in the latter part of last year, I personally nttended to the vatting of all Rums sent out by that firm ; and in making up my Rums now for Australia, my aim is at least to equal the standard of quality which I always prepared for that market, and which was so well known I have no connection with the gentleman who purchased tho assets of the old firm from the trustee ; and who now trades in the mime of Lemon Haet & Son, at George street, Tower Hill ; and no Rum is prepared by mo except that branded only " Lemon Haht's Rum, London." As with Rums bearing my brand I use only Demerara and West India Rums, I in all cases hand a dock certificate with invoice. At same tirre, where buyers may require a lower quality, I am always prepared to submit muob lower prices, but without my full brand. Youra laithfully, LEMON HART. Trinity Square, Tower Hill, 1, Postern Row, London, 12th July, 1871. DEAR SIR, — My attention has been called to a circular dated 24th March, 1871, appearing in the " Journal of Commerco of Victoria," dated Melbourne, 18th May, 1871. Thia circular purports to be issued by the now extinct firm of Lemon Haut & Son, and ia evidently designed to induce tho belief that it emanates from the former partners of that firm, and that tho business is still carried on by them. I hasten, thorefore, to inform you that such is not the fact ; that the old firm of Lemon Hart & Son no longer exists, having been dissolved in November last ; that I, its senior partner, am no party to the circular issued in my late firm's name, and have no interest whatever in tho business there referred to, having established myself under tlie name of Lemon Habt & Co. at tho above address ; and that the circular above referred to emanates from Mr White, of Tenby, who, having bought the assets of the late firm at a fixed sum, thus unwarrantably assumes to use its name and title. Tho further statement in the above circular, as to the stuff who have been specially employed in the preparation of tho Rum shipped by my lato firm, refers to the retention of one or two dock clerks, whose only business, as employes, was to carry out the instructions given cither by my late father or myself, the secret of the whole matter being of course the judicious selection of tho various kinds of Rum required for the purpose, which is only to be arrived at by many years of experience ; and I need not add that this part of the business was not done by tho "staff," but by myself. All Rum shipped by mo will be branded " Lemon Haht's Rum, London." I beg to enclose you my circular of tho 10th June, in reserence to this matter, and to tho quality of the Rum lately shipped from hero by one or two houses. Faithfully yours, LEMON HART.
