8th April, 1935.

The Southwark Manufacturing Co.Ltd.,
Nelson Passage,
High Street,
Birmingham.

For attention of Mr. Cecil F. {Mr Friese} East.

Dear Sirs,

With reference to the "Corru-Joint" Exhaust Washers you recently supplied for our 3½ litre Bentley Chassis.

We would advise you that we have fitted both sets and that so far they are satisfactory.

However, one chassis fitted with "Corru-Joint" washers has recently started a 10,000 miles test, and as soon as completed we will advise you further.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
