H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Royce, Esq.,
c/o Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited,
DERBY.

Dear Sir,

We refer to our letter of the 22nd April, when we sent you a supply of Motorine R and Pure Castor Oil for test in the Bijur system of chassis lubrication.

You will be interested to learn that Messrs. Luvax Limited have tested Motorine R and express their approval of this lubricant for the Luvax-Bijur system. They are at one with us on the importance of low setting point, and they confirm also the suitability of Motorine R for average temperature conditions.

We are,

Yours truly,

PRICE'S PATENT CANDLE COMPANY LIMITED.

[Signature: Jur/Brooker]
