Dear Mr. Hancocks, Since you left the works we have discovered the needle seats we gave you are not the correct type, and I should not advise them to be sent out on cars although they may be all right on test in your works. Actually they are 3/32" feed hole instead of 1/8", and we are sending you a suppy of the latter under separate cover tonight. Will you please return the others to us. Kind regards. Yours sincerely, [Signature] DR ENGINEERING AND ALLIED EMPLOYERS' NATIONAL FEDERATION | ||
