SPEEDOMETERS.

I have just received the speedometer which I am sending you herewith, through the Order Office from Messrs Smith & Sons. It is evidently the result of Sales and Smith & Sons' representative discussing the matter together, and the visit that Smith & Sons made in consequence of the discussion, to our works.

They have left the speedometer unsealed so that we can inspect the interior. It is possibly more a question of our inspecting than trying same.
