For the attention of Mr. Dorer.

Dear Sirs,

We are today returning to you a Phantom III thermometer and oil gauge unit which has a fractured capillary. Will you please correct this thermometer to the flexible capillary type to D.75953 and if it is possible to modify the dial as requested in our letter of the 12th inst. (red line corresponding to 106°C etc) we should like this done.

Yours faithfully,
