WATFORD EW6 MAGNETO NO.99802.
-Roy {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} /JT5/HP16.4.29.-

Our complaint of this machine was of noisy and knocking gears after having run 1000 miles. We were, and are, of the opinion that the new distributor wheel and pinion suggested should be fitted free of charge.

In regard to the new pick-up, we should like to hear from Messrs. Norths as to the reason for saying this is necessary.
