quite feasible. II would take some
time TO work if ur, hut be thought il
would be great convenience to the
| travelling public, and TO those who
cater for them. He likewise. as soon
! as he saw / was the right person in
/ the right place, is going TO give me
all the assistance he can.
So you see 1 have not gone into this
| before consulting two of the leading
caterers, 10 the travelling public-a gov
eminent institution, and private one.
Having been TO the volcano, also to
the recent lava flow and been over
the flows of '6S-S7-07, I should be able
TO do much to interest people about
this wonderful phenomena of nature.
With the information at hand and
the information you are about to send,
and having lived in Hawaii twelve
years, / should be able to more truth
fully portray the many things that
might make it the traveller g while TO
stop over one steamer and continue his
trip to Vancouver or San Francisco.
l am everybody s representative, and
agent for no one particular person, and
hope in this way to be of practical
benefit to the traveller and to the coun-
try he is about to visit, whether it be
Hawaii or not
l would very muth like to have you
ask several of your principal business
men if they would not like to make
use of my bureau. even if only for the
purpose of getting an outside quote now
and then. | appreciate the fact the
houses in the islands and in Sydney
have long ago established relations by
means of correspondence and other
wise.
J. am right here, where I can watch
the market fiuetuate week by week, and
intend to have the various market re-
ports on file in my office, for my own
knowledge, and for those who patronize
me, who are interested in the various
lines of trade
Having been in the provision trade
in the islands for some considerable
period, and lately in the leather trade
l ought to be pretty well posted as to
island wants in general. This alone
should be in my favor.
Orders for goods, such as onions, but |
ter, and sundry other things could be
passed through my hands, as [ am in
touch with business people here and |
will get more so, as time goes on.
| am asking retaining fee of G2
a year from any wholesaler, who cares
to take this matter up. | get no COM
mission on bis order large or small, |
but a similar retaining fee from the /
local wholesaler, this gives me but G4
a year from both parties, this I think /
quite reasonable, as considerable bust
ness can be transacted in this way.
Retailers businesses in other countries,
advertised by my system fer e. year.
A card enclosed will explain the sys-
TEN of this latter, and means a dis
5ribution of 1900 cards per year as
sample. You will also find my card,
md later I viii send you my prospec-
JUS, when it comes from the printers:
t tells exactly the object of the bureau,
what | do, and how / do it.
Trusting / may hear fom you by the
Town boat, and that we may be of
ervice to each other, / beg to remain,
Yours respectfully,
STAFFORD HEAPY.
