| P. S.- After the foregoing was dictated, I was called to New York, and while there, had a visit at the Prestone offices and learned that they had failed to send you the copy of their booklet as per my request to them at the time. I regret that they fell down on this, so am mailing you another copy under separate cover and trust it will still prove of service. Next, you spoke while here, of the possibility that your Company might wish to obtain a license to produce our Valve for your own requirements, and also that you could recommend a certain outside firm who might be interested in obtaining a general license for Great Britain. May we therefore state that we are arranging with the Cuno Corporation to take over the British market, and hence would be glad to discuss this subject with both your Company and with this other firm you mentioned, and would therefore appreciate it if you will be kind enough to let them know of the subject. Very truly yours, ILLSEY COMPANY | ||
