EH4/LG23.9.19.
23rd. Sept.1919.

We have sent into the Stores to be despatched to Messrs. Elliott one black finished Speedometer. The mileage recorder on this instrument works the wrong way round to suit our cars. The miles per hour registered is not correct; it is much higher than the true reading. Will you please have these returned to the Makers to be made correct and to be returned to us as soon as possible.

EH.
