Messrs. H.M. Hobson Ltd.,
27-29 Vauxhall Bridge Rd.,
London S.W.1.

Dear Sirs,

For the attention of Mr. Davey.

We have your carburetters in the Vee fitted up on our aero engine ready for test.

We suggest that we should make more progress if you could send a representative down to assist us on the job as so far we do not seem to get very satisfactory results.

Yours faithfully,
