Testimonials. 



From Mr. James Gentles, Contractor.—" I have for a con- 

 siderable time past used Gillespie's Patent Inclinometer in 

 extensive drainage operations carried on by me, and I have found 

 it to be of the greatest service, in showing the minutest slope in 

 the ground, and in saving of labour ; and I could not have con- i 

 structed many of the drains with any degree of accuracy without 

 its assistance."— James Gentles, Hart Hill, by Whitburn. 



Extract of a letter from John Mitchell, Esq., Stand Hill, Bath- 

 gate.— '• I highly appreciate its capabilities as a levelling insfm. 

 ment in level lands, where there is a difficulty in detecting 

 which direction the land slopes, it is invaluable/' 



Extract of a letter from Mr. John Turner, Surveyor, Whitburn. 

 — The more I have tested it the more have I appreciated its 

 value. By this invention the power of levelling is brought withia 

 the reach of all men of ordinary capacity."
