We now beg to mention that we have every facility to enable us to meet the wishes and demands of this place and vicinity in above said branches, and, as we have been here for upwards of six years, have gained full knowledge of the trade, and assure all those who will favor us with their kind patronage that we shall do all in our power to please and satisfy them, as regards prices, terms, and attention; our motto will be "LIVE and LET LIVE." We beg further to state that this purchase has been made on our own account, and not for any other firm, as has been reported. All orders entrusted to us will be executed with the greatest care, and anything not in stock, whether in our branches or not, can be procured through our friends in Melbourne and Dunedin, with a small advance on the original cost.
