Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /EAG.7/ET.

Messrs. Ferodo Limited,
Chapel-en-le-Frith,
S T O C K P O R T.

Attention of Mr. Shilton.

Dear Sirs,

Referring to our recent correspondence regarding bonnet rest, we sent you a blue print which called for this material one inch in width.

Due to a change in design, we find that 1" would be too wide and that ¾" will be more suitable.

We advise you of this, as you said in your letter of March 20th that you were going into the question of producing a beaded material similar to what we wanted.

Yours faithfully,
