TESTIMONY OF A. S. HARTwELL.
Called for defendant. Sworn. Tn
answer to Mr.. Thurston). I first
knew of the question between Mac
farIana and tha WaikaDu Suoar
Company and Mr.. Spreckels in April
or May of 1883, when I gave Mr.
Macfarlane my written opinion with
regard to the matter The question
was whether bill of partition should
be brought, or an action for account
ing or an action in ejectment. [
gave him my opinion in writing and
heard nothing more about the matter
that [ can recall until about the lat
ter part of 1889. Between November,
1889, and February, 1890, I heard a
great deal about the matter from Mr..
Macfarlane, and perhaps little from
Mr.. Bishop Finally, when l left
here in February, 1890, I was re-
quested by Mr.. Macfarlane to see
Mr.. Spreckels on the subject. L saw
Mr.. Spreckels and told him my
errand, and told him it would give
me great pleasure to be instrumental
in settling up the claim. He said
there was no claim and there was no
use of talking about it. He would
not admit that there was any ques-
ton or any claim.

OYSTERS AND SEEDS

Are valuable for what's in 'em. Good
and bad oysters look alike in the shell.
Good and bad seeds often have the same
appearance. Any one can tell worth
less oyster on opening it. The value OF
a seed must be determined by its growth.
This makes its quality worth considering.
You want seeds that will grow, and you
want the product to be of value. There
is but one guarantee; the reliability OF
the firm from which you buy.
